Well, I'm not good at PHP, or hmtl at all, but I can manage some minor alterations to existing themes, and so on...

Now I have succesfully installed Gallery 2.1.2 (patched version that works with my crappy hosting service) and WPG2 2.0 (the zip-file is called 2.2.0 though).

The thing I want is:

- Only to display the gallery - by that I mean, the albums, subalbums, and so forth - no menus or anything.
- Guests being able to comment - no registration needed, as I really only need the "gallery" bit.
- Have it look something like this http://www.ozgreg.com/v/australia/qld/brisbane (hope it's alright I'm getting alot of inspiration from you, Greg!) - And by that I mean, the way you show single pictures, the frame around the pictures (should be both around pictures, and around albums/subalbums). And then again, only to display the album - not the menu to the right (but perhaps navigation possibilities at the top).

I think the theme I downloaded is put together abit weird, because the embed function in WPG2 doesnt work at all, it looks like this: http://www.innovativesolutions.dk/wp-gallery2.php and it should look something like this: http://www.innovativesolutions.dk/?page_id=2 only with the gallery showing, of course...

And would it then still be possible to use the G2ImageChooser option?

That example is exactly what it looks like to embed a gallery.
Look here http://www.trbailey.net/trb for another example. You'll need to select the Gallery link.
Why embed it if all you want are comments?
I'll watch this thread in case you reply but it's been here for a while so you may have lost interest.
