 * hi out there. Does anybody know a how to make a navigation in nextgen albums.
   When a album is shown up and i click on a gallery the only way is to use the 
   back buttom of the browser. i even bougt nextgen gallery pro but same thing there.
   The best thing would be if the album thumbnails would be shown above the open
   gallery. a back to album thumbnails button would be great as well. i found a 
   sollution with an older version of nextgen gallery but everything has changed
   in the new version.

 * This is what I used on my site to get the name of the albums and galleries to
   show and act as navigation. It pulls the url, splits it and puts it on top of
   the albums and galleries.
 * You may have to alter this code slightly depending on your configuration. There
   are two iterators, myi1 and myi2. You may have to add one or two to one or both
   of them to get what you want to show to display right.
 * The downside of this is that the slug is what is being displayed on top, not 
   the name you’ve given it. So if you have two galleries with the same name, they’ll
   be called “XXX-2” or something like that.
 * I hope this helps.
