Gallery Plugin using Categories (2 posts)

    I'm working on a website for an artist client who has a very specific design in mind for his site. We chose WordPress because he would like to upload new images, place them in a category and they will appear as thumbnails under a page for that category.

    Viva Theme's L'Image does exactly what I want on the individual gallery pages on the right nav bar, but I'm not interested in the theme layout. You can see the theme here: http://www.vivathemes.com/limage/

    Is there an existing plugin that will allow for this, or do I need to create a script for this? I'm not finding any existing gallery-type plugins that would recreate this effect, allow for major CSS changes, and still work with Lightbox.

    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

    Could I hypothetically create child pages from the Gallery page and use the gallery shortcode with the Lightbox plugin? This may not be the most semantic way to do this but it seems like it might do the trick?
