Please is there anybody that can help me install this? I have a lot of pictures on my HD that I would like to transfer to my Gallery, and I just work out how to install it.

You an upload them via FTP and add them from the server:

There's also the new(er) uploadify module that's Flash based:

The easiest way to launch galleryremote on Gallery 2 and Ubuntu 10.10 is:
- login as admin in your gallery site
- in your Admin Options > Gallery Plugins panel, ensure you have the "Remote" plugin (section: "Remote Interfaces"
- then in Admin Options > Remote Interfaces > Remote, ensure that the option "Show information about Gallery Remote in "add items" view " is checked.
Once you have that, from the main gallery screen, select "Add Items" as you normally do. You will notice there are four options: "From Web Browser", "From Web Page", "From local server", and "Gallery Remote".
- click on "Gallery Remote", then on "Run Gallery Remote immediately using Java Webstart"
This assumes you have Sun Java 6 installed in your system, which most likely you do (I am running an ubuntu 10.10 fresh install and Java 6 was there). The latest version of Gallery Remote will download and execute on-the-fly from the web and connect to your site, works like a charm for me.
Enjoy

If you don't see Uploadify it under Site Admin > Plugins then you need to make that you've unpacked it into the modules directory correctly, you should find a module.info file at:
modules/uploadify/module.info
You also need to make sure you have Flash installed and working in your browser.
