    One thing that really bugs me is that if you only need one album in each Collection then you have to click twice just to get to all the pictures. It doesn't make much sense to me. It would make much more sense to allow for people to add pictures to a Collection and just skip the albums if they only want to use one album. For example, I want to upload pictures from a recent trip. I create a collection for the trip and then I have to create another album for the exact same trip. Seems redundant.

    Anyway around this?

    You can do this by making your link to the gallery go straight to the albums instead of the collection. Then you would only have to make one collection.
    What would remain is the 'collection' link in the breadcrumbs, but you could either leave this out of your header.php in your theme or delete the <a> and </a> from around that link.

    Here's a related question:
    http://plogger.org/forum/discussion/1401/remove-collections-from-breadcrumb/#Comment_5697
    I tried the solution found in that post, but it didn't work. It just produced the Collections breadcrumb with visible comment tags around it.
    Would like to try your idea next, but need more information. In header.php there is a mention of breadcrumbs, but there is nothing that seems specific to the collection link. I'm afraid to destroy the breadcrumbs altogether.
    Not sure where, in what file, to delete the anchor tags.
    Thanks.

    the breadcrumbs is created bye the generate_breadcrumb() function in plog-functions.php

    to remove the collections link all you have to do is delete the anchor tag for it, so remove this link everywhere it shows up:
    <a accesskey="/" href="'.$config["baseurl"].'">Collections</a> &raquo;

    lines 12, 18, 34, 37, and 51 in my install.

    the $raquo; is just the double arrow seperator
