Err, there is no link for "Add a subgallery" when publishing through the
XP Publish mechanism, unless it's the same color as the background (is
that the "ninja skills" that you are referring to... :-P ).
I guess I wasn't crystal clear. What I meant was that you can't create
sub-galleries while doing the XP publish. You can create galleries, but
not sub-galleries. To publish images to a sub-gallery, it has to
already exist before you publish, unless I'm missing something.
