 - Being able to create new albums by tag or by manually picking images from other albums. Could be a simple comma separated list of viewer names, or even full urls, in the album directive.

 absolutely-positioned boxes that are currently used if they provided the effect
 I wanted. I can't remember exactly why I didn't do that now, but
