Our members love this feature and use it extensively.
My questions are about the order in which things appear.
1) Images added to albums are appended to the end of the Photo Album. Image Galleries show most recent image first. Can I change Photo Albums to do the same?
2) In lightbox view, could it be possible to scroll 'back' from the first image direct to the last image in the album, i.e. enable browsing backwards from the end.

Thanks!

Hi Lorna

The next release of the PhotoAlbum module lists new additions first.

This is a bit more difficult as it would require Core level changes to support it. We will check it out though.
Thanks
Paul

Thanks very much for the change to the order.

I am experiencing some problems creating Photo Albums at the moment - there is a lag of several minutes between creating an album and when it appears in the pop-up list of existing albums. This is very noticeable when trying to put several images in an album one immediately after the other.
It also takes some time for the added images to show on the Album view, even after refreshing the page.
I'll see what happens when we have installed your latest Photo Album version and raise the issue if it still occurs.

This sounds like a caching issue. If its still happening after installing the new version try temporarily disabling caching by putting the site into developer mode. If that fixes things, let me know (and don't forget to turn site caching back on).
