Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
New formatter called "A random image from Brilliant Gallery" - for pages or views where you need to show just one random image from a/each gallery. Put your gallery / Picasa RSS / Google+ album path in an entity text field and choose the formatter in your view mode, or in Views. An excellent method for creating a lively list of examples from all your galleries in one view (for an example, see http://vacilando.org/galleries).
Support for a text field formatter! A new option for showing galleries -- just add a text field to any content type, select formatter "Brilliant Gallery"! In this field then enter any of your local gallery paths, a Picasa RSS link or a Google+ album URL. Multiple text fields / galleries are supported as well. Getting galleries on Drupal pages has never been so easy!
Support for Google+ Photos URLs! Google now redirects picasaweb.google.com to the albums section of Google+ Photos. You can get back to the old Picasa Web (see http://googlesystem.blogspot.be/2013/03/picasa-web-albums-redirects-to-g... to learn how) to get the RSS feed URL but it's a bit impractical.

Numerous bug fixes and new functionality, esp. a much clearer and richer name/value syntax -- see http://vacilando.net/brilliant_gallery_examples ... more detailed info about new features will appear on the front page and in instructions in the next days.
* all functionality from the latest D5 version (5.x-4.3), including AJAX image visibility management, has been ported to this release
* added a possibility to browse the root of the /files folder (thanks for suggestion and code http://drupal.org/node/345947)
* various bug fixes
* better readable, beautified code
NEW in 5.x-4.0: An image management page at /admin/settings/brilliant_gallery/manage showing all installed galleries on the website and to make any image visible or invisible by simply by clicking a slick AJAX-powered checkboxes (code based on the Ajax Checklist module). This allows you to upload your whole collection and only later decide what will be publicly viewable. Make sure you run /update.php after installation to establish the necessary database table! (Soon to be implemented in 6.x-2.0 as well)
1) Added two new tag options:
* sorting/randomizing,
* limiting maximum number of images to show.
The tag with full options now looks as follows: [bg|path/to/your/gallery/folder/without/wrapping/slashes|columncountoverride|widthoverride|sortorrandomoverride|maximumnumbertoshow]
