Because of the size of the photolog, I had to break it up and move everything over by hand. However now it is badly out of order. The thought of manually reordering 282 albums is terrifying. I need a way out. I’m watching this thread closely.

Gallery can be such a royal pain in the butt to move. I run a large community photo gallery, and one time I hosed everything up royally. The lessons learned from that move have prompted me to beg users to rename albums well, but that just doesn’t happen. Unfortunately, there’s no metadata in the file structure Gallery creates. :sigh:
You weren’t able to transfer between boxes, though? 🙁
You’re still using Gallery? It is very difficult, I agree. There is fortunately a standards-compliant alternative to gallery that works in much the same way and is written in good PHP:
