 * Hey
 * I have seen this covered in some posts some time ago but they were all months
   ago.
 * Is there anyway at present to set this up to allow comments on individual photos?
 * I don’t have any of the flashy stuff going just basic thumbnails that open on
   the page. Would love to have comments available under it rather then the comments
   showing up in the album instead.
 * any help?

 * i wonder if you could add Google Connect Comment box to the individual photo 
   pages and maybe output the pictureID to make the comments unique, i suppose a
   similar technique could also work in WordPress, but we’d have to modify the comment
   table. hmm…any update on this?

 * actually, i was able to add Google Connect Comment Box to my blog, but i would
   rather add WP Comments to the pages, still looking for a solution to this. anyone
   got a tip for me?
 * I do not like the NextGen Gallery method of making a page for each photo, which
   is one method to getting the comments to work.

 * Can you please explain how to make galleries with a page for each photo?
    I’m
   also finding a way to add comments & ratings to each photo, but no success so
   far.

 * WP Comments are linked to the post.
 * So, all you would do is when you add a post, click the Add Image button from 
   WYSIWYG when you go to post something and then insert the photo from your nextgen
   gallery there.
 * This would add comments to the photo because now the photo is in a post…
 * I don’t like this method because seems like alot of manual work.

 * oh btw, i was able to add google comment box and it did work, but i removed it
   from the website because i would prefer to use WP comments.
 * If anyone has the solution, let us know, for now i have shelved the possibility
   of adding comments.
 * There is a plugin to add ratings for nextgen already I think its called NextGen
   Gallery Ratings — I had seen a post saying that it is a similar thing.

 * thanks. I’ve tried the ratings plugin, but it’s still very rudimentary, I think
   it needs more development.
