Breadcrumbs

I'm sure that I must be missing something. I have chosen to have my breadcrumbs "display full breadcrumbs." But they don't really. Once a viewer has left the folder section "browse" of my site to enter a collection of galleries, the only thing that she can go back to is the homepage...she can't go back to the folder section. Does this make sense? I want my viewers to be able to go up and down the organizational structure of the site without having to always return to home. Is this possible? Help! (And thanks in advance!)

P.S. I do know, of course, that a viewer can always hit "browse" again to get the folder section...but why not also be able to do so through breadcrumbs?

    Good luck getting this answered. As you have noticed, the "browse" page disappears from the breadcrumbs one you leave it by clicking on a gallery/folder.

    I agree! It's frustrating that users would be returning back to home instead of the browse page with all the folders/galleries listed. I hope they provide a fix asap. Otherwise, a quick solution would be to add a text content block and have it display above the folders/galleries via the 'all galleries' and 'all folders' customization menu. I've used that to add a description so will most likely add a notice "return to all galleries via the 'galleries' link in navigation".

    It's killing me because my new site looks SO MUCH better than my old one :( This is my only issue.
