I installed comus for somebody and was less than impressed.
It generates its listings on the fly, so it is not efficient for large volumes of traffic.
The gallery approval process uses a meta tag redirect method instead of a header based redirect method, adding 1-3 seconds to the approval time for each gallery. (trust me, this is annoying and it matters.)
The black list function works by email address, but no where in the software can you find out the email address of offending galleries in order to black list them.
The gallery approval page presents and scans all galleries in the queue on one page. If you let 200-300 galleries build up in the queue, it can take 30-45 seconds just to load the approval page. (The russian submitter will cripple a stock Comus script.)
Its cheating detection is rudamentary at best. Get ready to hear "I have a secret website."
The html it generates is poor and does not validate at w3c and does not render properly in some of the more obscure browsers.
