I have some older Microsoft Frontpage photo galleries that I want to import into my existing Gallery 2 installation. Are there any existing conversion techniques for the Frontpage formatted galleries that will take the captions, albums, and photos into Gallery? Any suggestions on how to attack such a conversion if not? I have about 4 years of kids pictures under that format from before I switched to Gallery about 3 years ago. Any help appreciated! Thanks!

Never heard of MS frontpage generated photo-albums.
To my knowledge there are no coverters for frontpage -> Gallery.

g2's "add items from local server" allows to import a whole folder-tree of photos into gallery with a few clicks.
you'll then have to add your notes / descriptions to all items.
and finally you'll have to choose a nice theme that fits your vision (visual style, navigation, ..) and you may customize the theme.
