I'm all about statistics and I would appreciate if there was a way too list the total pictureviews on the frontpage(or album index), instead of just showing "this album has been visited #'s times"

Better yet a fully functional statistic page would be neat too, list the top40 of the most popular pictures in hits and in comments etc...would be great.

[FYI] grabbing the stats from every photo in the current setup would be slow and time consuming. You might want to add in a new stat on the album level that gets incremented separately on each photo view.

If you *really* love stats, you should be writing Perl scripts and scan your raw Apache access log directly (log "combined" mode rather than "common" mode for much more useful info). Everything you ever wanted to know and more is already logged in there.
