I tied to search the forums, and I haven't seen anyone talking about using Facebook Connect as an authentication method. What's stopping people from using it? More details about it are available here: http://developers.facebook.com/connect.php

Somebody writing the code for a module to do the authentication.

I just wrote a smarty function with some minor tweaks to the theme.tpl page (added tag, some css) to create a facebook badge for gallery logins. so UI is done!

now the hard parts

next up is the all the db updates for registration ( any references for this? ), then finally the proper user login

could use some direction here as I am new to Gallery

Hey, it looks like you have started on something I have been thinking about doing!
are you still working on this and if so can I help you make it work for gallery 3?
