[TYPO3-ect] Just another gallery extension :-)

[Benjamin Mack]

Hey,

actually, there is a "gallery" (actually, the purpose was a slideshow in 
javascript) that takes the images from the DAM.

http://typo3.org/extensions/repository/view/ce_gallery/1.1.1/

So you can use DAM to manage files, albums etc. and this for output.

I think this has the most potential to extend and send patches to the 
maintainer (very active). I want to use this extension in the near 
future too.

greetings,
benni.
