Thanks for your comment. Our own Foliopress WYSIWYG is up and running now and is much the easiest way to create properly labelled embedded galleries within posts that I’ve seen.

Totally SEO friendly URLs and titles.

Not a solution for huge galleries, but a great solution for images which should be properly titled and labelled.

If you get a chance to download, let me know how it goes.

however, the best thing about these two programs is that wpg2 integrates them better than any other blog/media serving solution does.

if there is a better solution you need more plugins/combinations of settings. having said that, start with wp, g2, and wpg2 as to have something working asap.

btw, pretty permalinks with embedded gallery does work. set your gallery admin control panel to use the rewrite/permalink rules, tell wpg2 its on, then refresh g2’s admin control panel to set your modules up properly. set your settings right in the right order and youll get a clean url to an image of gallery while on a wp post or page.

also theres a plugin now that embeds swf in your posts or pages. its been out for a while. it requires you to type in the uri to your file, but it works.
