First of all! Amazing how much work and effort you've put in this excellent Component!!!
I use it for over a while now and nothing has compete with it ever. Love the auto thumbing and PicLens support.
Oke, here's my question. I searched the forum but couldn't find an answer. Is there a possibility to upload multiple photo's at ones from front end? If not, are you planning to insert this feature in future releases?
Also I read users can manage one category for security reasons. I solve this by changing the category author to nobody from the back end whenever I see one. Are you planning on changing this or adding a possibility to let users create and manage multiple categories.
Third request is an option to auto create the PicLens feeds. Is it possible to automatically update the PicLens rss whenever changes are made to a category? This will probably be tricky but would come really handy when users are creating there galleries.
Love your work!

Re: Multiple Add from Front End
multiple upload - front - no there isn't because of security reasons, it is not only uploading but creating thumbnails too, and there are some functions (like enabling thumbnail creation, possible memory fatal errors) which should be not displayed in the frontend, I am looking for some solution, but didn't found yet 
- users categories - the same problem, I am looking for some protection, because if user will create a category, a folder on server must be created too, then new behaviour of list of categories must be done for the frontend, (not easy
)
- automatically creating of piclens - this must be done after every adding of image, and this can very slow down the server if user will use it without any prevention. Now you click and a file with all images will be created. If this will be automatically created, then the file must be created after every adding of images (because of getting actual state
