I know nothing about php and all this other stuff, so please be patient.

I've looked everywhere but can't find answers:

Why is there no "Add Photo to Cart" fromt the photo page? People have to go back to the thumbnail page before they can add the photo's.

why does it alway jump to the "cart" page after adding photos to cart. It needs to stay where it is so people don't have to back up after each "add"

Why is there no "back" button somewhere? Simple navigation buttons would be a great help in making this an easy gallery to use.

Am I missing something in the configuration of this thing?

You need to add the Item Actions block to the photo page under Edit Album > Theme (tab)

G2 isn't all Ajaxified and cool like that to just add an item to the cart and update the cart on the page without either reloading the page or sending you to the cart. You'd need to edit the Cart module for this, but since you know nothing about php that's probably going to be a hard row to hoe.

I have yet to see a browser that doesn't have a back button. But you can probably edit a template file to include this functionality.
