Recommendation for the simplest photo' gallery?

[Timbow]

I don't think the zip thing is used for anything other than making backup zip archives.

The very simplest gallery would be to use GS's existing thumb generation and the ready made html thumbnail to file links under the Files tab, plus a bit of css to style and maybe make them open in a pop-up type window.

Second simplest is to use the fancybox plugin and again copy and paste the thumbs as links.

Finding your way around the plugins is half the battle with this CMS
