Is there a module (or way) to allow an album to display both, photos contained in the album AND tagged photo's from other albums? I have albums that contain and display photos and I have some albums that are set to just display certain tagged photo's, but I can't find a way for a single album to do both.

Can't Tag Albums do this?

Not from what I can figure out no. The 2 options I see under Edit Album are "display with any tag" or " display all tags". If I select the 'display with any tag', the rest of the photo's actually loaded into the album no longer show up.

Am I doing something wrong?

Probably not. I thought it could be done, but I confess that I haven't tried it.

I'm guessing there's a reason why just tagging all of the items doesn't work for you?

Not a easy way but the item links module could be used manually for the 'external' tagged items.

Yes, in a Tagged album you loose your Album Options menu, your Breadcrumbs and your FancyBox viewing module for the photos displayed in that album (if you use fancybox like I do with GreyDragon). These are important issues for me considering the way my photos are cataloged and fall under numerous categories.
