Jirka Wow!, really like it, the design and implementation.
The comments page and the top 20 are really good ideas but I think you need to add navigation to the comments page like you have with the top20. At the moment you have to click back in your browser or go to the image to get back to the main gallery page (index.php ?).
If you feel like sharing, how are the comments and top20 pages implemented? Are you going to release a version of the theme based around a the original hemingway theme for example?
Great work again. Sorry if some of these questions are answered on your site but my Czech is pretty bad! :-)

I have the navigation for comments done, but it is working quite strange. It works only, when there is more comments then allowed comments on page. So, when total count of comments will be more then 10, I'll upload the new comment page.
To get to index.php just simply click the logo Jirkova galerie.
If I release somtehing, it would be just the thing you see on my web. Simply because I don't like the dark hemingway ;)
Implemenation of the top20 and comments? I simply call to my database to return all comments and sort it by date. Top20 returns all images sorted by hits. That's all. Probably, during the weekend, I'll modify the scripts and put them online with some explanation. So check my site again

Ok, thanks for the info.
Re: releasing the theme, I simply assumed that as the gallery at the moment is integrated into the style of your website you wouldn't want thousands of them on the web. If you do release, thats great though, I am sure a lot of people would be very happy with it as its a well designed gallery, quite apart from the great extended features you have put in! Keep up the good work!

New Feature!
Picture Rating. You can see it live at http://www.jirulda.com/galerie/top20/nejlepe_hodnocene where is list, sorted by rating a number of votes. You can vote for picture only at picture pages, because I didn't worked out how to correctly display voting bar at this list page. Person can vote only once from one IP, then he has to wait till somebody else votes the same picture.. That is probably the easiest way to catch "manyvotemakers" :)
Rating bar is taken from: http://komodomedia.com/blog/samples/ratings.htm but modded a bit, to display actaul rank.
I will probably not make it public, because there is lot of thing fitted only to my install of ZP. But, it is not that hard to implement!

I used the star ratings (just the images) from the same article to display a rating for my now reading plugin over at my blog: http://www.thinkdreams.com/blog/library/neil-gaiman/the-sandman-vol-2-the-dolls-house/
The Komodo Digital article is a great way to implement the star ratings functionality like Netflix uses (they use a similar system to rate the movies you rent and watch.)
@Koffee: You wouldn't mind sharing your theme code via email would you? I'd like to see how you plugged it into your theme and interfaced with the database, as I am working on a similar functionality of my own. I'd be happy to share my somewhat working RSS feed stuff with you, at least until Tristan works it into the code in one of the later versions, then I'll be using his version.
Good work.

Allright, just give me your mail.. But I warn you, I am very new to php and mysql, so some functions are very messy, unsecure or there is better way to do it, but now it works and seems safe, so i don't mind. :) And again, there are some things which fit only MY 1.0.2 install of ZP.

Koffee-
I've been fiddling with zenphoto and wordpress for a while, plus other web stuff, so I'm OK with whatever code you've written.
I'll check it out anyway, and I'll see what it looks like. Just wanted to see what your take is on the functionality.
Thanks! I'll let you know what I come up with. Do you want to take a look at my RSS feed code? It's probably just as messy.....
My email is craig (at) thinkdreams.com.
