A couple of things have happened tonight. Not sure which is the ultimate culprit.
I decided to upgrade from 2.3 rc-1SVN to 2.3 stable. So I put the gallery in maintenance mode (from the admin page) and proceeded to upload the files, and run the upgrade. I got the warning about unused files throughout the gallery and proceeded. The upgrade completed without errors.
I went to the gallery page (http://www.ecbcardinals.com/restricted/menalto/main.php. I get a blank page. No errors. No warnings. No nothing.
I looked at the apache error log and got the following:

I have no idea how to fix this. Nor do I know if fixing this error would allow me access to my gallery again.
Could anyone please help? If it would help, I have attached the file to this post.

One other thing:
I do have a backup of both the source to 2.3 rc-1 as well as the database in xml. if i need to return to the previous state I can. I won't like it but I can.

Looks like either theme.tpl for Matrix was either edited or got corrupt on upload. Try uploading a fresh Matrix theme.
Did you have any errors about missing or modified files when upgrading?

Thanks. I had done that last night after posting the message. didn't work. But then, this morning, after clearing the cache (which I had neglected to do last night), it started working again.
in the future, remind me to install stable releases.
