I think that what the underlying issue here is that when you view an  
image in a gallery that has never been viewed before, Ansel is  
currently iterating through the entire gallery list and creating the  
'screen' views on *all* the images since it needs the dimensions of  
the image for the slideshow code.  For smaller galleries this is not  
an issue, but for galleries with hundreds of images (or less depending  
on server power) this is a problem. At the very least we will  
experience very long load times.

The only reason we have to load *all* the screen images is to get the  
image dimensions, and the only reason we need that, as far as I can  
tell, is for the effect we are currently using for the image  
transitions.  While I think it's a nifty effect, I propose to replace  
it with something less demanding...like maybe a simple fade  
effect...or at the very least, maybe add a transition option to each  
gallery's style now that we have them.

Thoughts?


Thanks,
mike
