    Using your links, it says your site is password protected.

    How did you delete the gallery? Going through control panel, or from gallery tools beneath the gallery?

    Have you written to HELP?

    If you have deleted the gallery category you can always create new gallery category from

    Control Panel > Customize Tab > Categories

    I don't know why Customize Gallery is not appearing under the gallery but you can also excess by

    Open the gallery you want to customize > gallery tools drop down menu > customize gallery

    Is this what you are asking ?headscratch.gif

    Nick on the help desk is working on it for you. He'll reply back to your email when he is done.


    Score card :)
    When you delete a category all the galleries are moved to the 'Other' category. In this case all the galleries were in a subcaetgory and the subcategory was't associated with the 'Other' category. This caused the bad links.

    Cabbey is taking a look to see if he can fix it all up for us :)
