Hello
Can someone please share how Gallery works?
I have on my card a folder that I created Pictures.
Within that folder I have created sub folders:
Family
Friends
Picture ID
Wallpaper... with a total 115 pictures
Well I noticed that in a folder called DCIM, there is a folder called .thumbnails, which seems to be copying the pictures(some 42 pics) from the Picture folder.

My main issue is that when I tap on Gallery it opens a black screen with folders that remain blank and nothing...

I am forced to power down because after 5 minutes the Droid is so sluggish its not usable.

Should I be deleting the folders that I created?
If so where do I put my pictures?

Thank you

I don't recall which folder I put mine in... but I know that I took some pics with the phone, then when connected to my PC I looked to see where those photos were located. I then placed all my other photos in that same folder. I haven't tried creating sub-folders. Good luck.

Also try the multitouch gallery in the android market. It may fix the problem and has multitouch for zooming on the photos

Thanks I purchased multitouch but still when I choose Gallery it lockup, and then locks up my device.
Is there anything I can do to get this to work?

What folder should be on my device maybe my sub folders or something is wrong?

Thanks
