A few ways to do this, the best way depends on how many images you have. You could start by creating a button menu with grid layout. For each button, use a background image and point it to your gallery. This would produce a grid of buttons with images (thumbnails) that lead to your gallery.

I believe that Spoofer is talking about a gallery with thumbnails that you touch and open the image... like this one: http://imageshare.web.id/images/8g7xjpi6u2u52kf7kl4z.png or this one: http://imageshare.web.id/images/ykxbzrnr9mlav82ufb.png Making a button menu would have a similar result but its sounds like much more work than making a thumbnail gallery. That was going to be one of my next posts/requests actually. The present image gallery is good, but sometimes a thumbnail gallery is more efficient, specially when you have a larger numbers of images. But for now I'm pretty sure you can add a XML-driven gallery that would even handle the swipe and pinch gestures... You just need to make one or find one in the web! I have seen something like that but can't remember where! =D That's going to my to-do list right after Janrain and Push!

Yup....for sure a more robust gallery is in need (it's on the list). However, it's not tough to do it with buttons if there are not too many images. The best approach depends. Oh, in fact, there's a good example of an HTML gallery that looks exactly like the native iOS gallery. Google it maybe, can't remember where I saw it.

Here's a gallery plugin I think will look good on Buzztouch ... http://www.jaipho.com/ David, would it be possible to run this scripts (Pipho specially) from within the app (offline)? What should I use, HTML doc?
