I have UUGallery licenses, but I got sick of updating that crap about a year ago. Wordpress update - UUGallery stops working. Nice...
I despise what Wordpress has become (a bloated platform designed more for progammers to make money than for bloggers to build simple, content rich, easily organized and updated sites), but Fris is the guy with the knowledge. Not being a smartass - Fris is the goto guy if you're using Wordpress. I'm a bit pissed off because his knowledge got me to care more about Wordpress than I would have on my own, but that's on me...
An easy method is to download the gallery and upload the images to your server. It takes a couple of minutes.
I'm just tired of Wordpress constantly updating, not getting any more secure, and adding all kinds of crap to my server that probably reduces what security there is. Crap I have no interest in ever using.
I really regret committing so many sites to this platform circa 2005 - 2009. Personally, I will never use Wordpress for anything in the future.
Wordpress is great - but its too much like having a retarded child that needs 24/7 care and attention. A retarded child that just keeps getting fatter and fatter. An eight year old child that constantly cries for no reason, but has demands you MUST fulfill - and gives very little back in return.
In other words - a nightmare. Wordpress' time has come and gone. Someone needs to step up and make a better, more streamlined, more secure, platform.
Wordpress is at a stage where Yahoo needs to buy it.
