Hi,

I have about 17 Gb of photos in a directory structure that i would like to bring into gallery.

I dont want to move the photos so I think the symbolic link setting is great.

The problem is that I dont want to create hundreds of albums manually. Is there an autometed process that can scan the directory structure and create albums and create thumbnails using symlinks?

c.

sorry, that doesnt answer my question. the "from local file system" option requires that an album be created to import in to.

i wish to create in excess of 1000 albums and was wondering if there was an automated process to scan the directory structure and create an album per directory.

cheers

from local server will keep the filestructure and import directories become albums. So it is what you are looking for.
