[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Limit number of images to a page – with a twist!

Version 2.6.3 of WordPress specifically and 0.99.1 of NextGen Gallery.

First of all, NextGen gallery ROCKS! Thanks for such a great plugin. I am a photographer, and many of my posts include NextGen galleries with many images. Often there are 20 or more images and sometimes as many as 100.

I prefer to have them display in my posts as a gallery, but if I set the number of images per page limit to 0 to disable pagination, the post looks cluttered with all the thumbnails.

I like setting the limit to 4 or 6 and getting the pagination effect. The problem is, when you click on the image to get the larger version you can only click the previous and next links to go through the images on that page, not the entire group.

I’d like to limit the number of thumbnails per page to say 4 or 6, but be able to click through all of them when I’m looking at the large version. Is this possible? Thanks for the help!
