    I would also like to see this feature, where you can assign existing images into a gallery rather than re-uploading them.

    Ideally, I would like it that the images don’t need to be copied into individual gallery directories, so NextGEN can maintain ‘virtual’ galleries, and save a little disk space and reduce WP clutter…..

    I agree with ade11 above. This suggestion would be fantastic. Just have a way to reference which pictures are in which albums so that the same picture can be in more than one album.

    It’s not a hard database coding thing to do. Just have an extra table that has the image id and the id of the gallery it is in. If an image is in multiple galleries, then it will have multiple entries on the table.

    Please please consider this. Other than this flaw NextGEN is a great plugin.
