Creating an album creates two albums

You mean creating a new album, right?

Can you post the (relevant) debug output of Gallery_Remote_Debug?

verified. Relevant output from Gallery_Remote_Debug:

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Call to undefined function:  array2object() in <b>/home/example/public_html/sites/example.com/modules/image_pub/image_pub.module</b> on line <b>203</b><br />
 318185|INFO |GalComm2  |Request failed the first time: trying again...

Corresponding lines from image_pub.module:

  $term = taxonomy_save_term($edit);
  if (isset($term)) {
    return array2object($term);
  }
  return NULL;
}

I've updated the array2object (as well as an object2array which would have been triggered with a move album) call to a cast. These were both Drupal 4.6-isms that had yet to be updated.

However, there's another problem with a call to _image_pub_get_albname($term) in function _image_pub_gr_add_album if there are any taxonomy terms in use. I have no idea what that call was supposed to be going to in the first place, as I can't find any reference to its declaration. Seems like this should have been broken in even the original version of image_pub samr announced.

You can try the latest cvs build. In the interest of just getting it to work, I simply commented out the two taxonomy-related lines that were hanging things up.
