I would like to have an album that can be accessed directly from the main galley page, with all items dynamically being selected if they match a certain keyword. Is this possible? |

You can use the link item to link to a dynamic album

Right.
Only problem I have is that it automatically inserts a link image as the thumbnail for it, even when I specify not to in the setup for it.

I don't understand what you mean

Under Site Admin, you can adjust the settings for all the plugins. I have all the options for adding a thumbnail disabled, yet when I add a link I get an icon of a chain as the link highlight.

OK, and the question is?

Well playing around with it, it seems that linking is what I want to do, but want to figure out how to remove the link image from the album highlight. There appears to be no way to do so except to replace the image with a dummy image.
Not sure where the image would be located as it's URL is main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=1213&g2_serialNumber=2

there is 2 methods to change;
The khtml2png a 3rd party plugin that works with the linkitem module. It can create screenshot / thumbnail of other websites (target URL)
then there is the thumbnail module:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Modules:thumbnail
Where you can give a custom thumbnail for each link/item. browse to the item and click edit link.
