For admins or for user? if user just click on Gallery from main menu> then click My gallery > add Category> then the Title and short description and and icon if you want!

The admin stuff more complicated depending what you want t your gallery to layout and permission and images size and lots more!

as for the ezBlocks manager, should be  easy to set up, 1 img per row, random, number img to display 1- 10 or what ever. if you do a top or bottom, it gets a bit messy for me, but you can chose 2-4 in the row!. chose if you want the use to collapse the block and if you want a header on the block... I did one on the right.
Ok, then you can chose what or where you want the block to appear, what pages or forum categories! hope this helps!

Thw site you posted is not even the same OS and the folder on the side would need to be custom made, I'd think, howeverr , you could manually make a menu to direct users to the Categories, by creating a menu like you see here! all though folder icons are too old fashion and distraction comes to mind there... I like to keep the forums clean, less clutter!

The Menu Title could what ever you want!

You could, then use the galley image thing. like I did, or something like it to show some of the examples.
There may also be other things that could done!

Yes you can use HTML block to create your own style, like I posted , or use the "Menu EzBlock" it has fields for adding titles and URLs ... you may then just copy and paste the info into the required spaces or text fields. one at a time.

But real think you will really a messy looking right block with so may link in it! :)

If the user is interested in your gallery they will find it via the radon picture or used like, 10 or maybe 15 links to it, using your favorite categories or main Cats.

The site you showed me earlier, is to me very, messy and will, not be professional looking.

Please note that if you use HTML, make sure you format and style your work not  to extend out of the width of you block, this will also make the site look bad or even error out you theme.  I have example in the how to sections of this site!

What version of the SMF gallery or you using?
