Description Allan Day 2010-05-10 20:18:49 UTC 
'Image Collection' is an odd term and could be confusing. The term suggests a specific group of images rather than a space in which images are displayed.

'Gallery' is much better. The word is commonly associated with the viewing of images. Also, it refers to a space in which images are displayed - which much better describes this functionality than 'Image Collection'.
Comment 1 Felix Riemann 2010-05-13 11:03:07 UTC 
Hmm, okay I guess we could this. Sounds reasonable esp. when using the collection in single row mode.

Though, I'm not certain yet if it should just be "Gallery" or the full "Image Gallery".
Comment 2 Allan Day 2010-05-24 11:10:04 UTC 
I don't have a big objection to 'Image Gallery', though I wouldn't have thought that 'Image' would be necessary - it is implicit in the word Gallery.
Comment 3 Felix Riemann 2010-06-13 11:29:32 UTC 
I went the simple route for now.

    Rename "Image Collection" to "Image Gallery"
    
    This is more fitting. Based on proposal by Allan Day. Fixes bug #618304.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
