Like, when I share my album to my family..they aren't so experienced in using computers. So making the layout as easy as possible is the best solution.
login, logout, upload images, delete uploaded images, rotate images, add comments. (and thats all..)

When It comes to more moderat users, like.. people who have been using a computer for a while, know which programs does what, and so on... They could have buttons like;
View all images on one page, send picture via email to users,

Advanced users should have;
crop image, stretch image, make sub-albums...

..just some thoughts.. It would be better If I can draw my ideas.. and post them here.
And btw; is it possible to be notified by email, when someone replies to my messages ??

I see where you are coming from, deepdown. If you are familiar with Movable Type at all, they have a built in system that allows the admin to decide how much or how little control each user has within their account over the functions (uploading photos, deleting photos, rebuilding files, editing templates, etc).

I'm assuming G2 could be set up in a similar fashion - but since I'm not working on G2 I can't say if this is part of the plan or not.

About getting email replies when someone responds to your posts - when you are logged in you can subscribe to whatever forums you want to keep track of, but not to individual threads.

I very much agree with this idea - even beyond beginner/medium/advanced, sometimes I just want to browse an album that I need to log in to view, but have write permissions in.
