    When I click on the first image in my gallery:

    My Gallery

    It comes up fine. But when I hit the “next” or “previous” image links, it seems to go in the counter intuitive direction. Is there a setting for this somewhere? Am I crazy to think it should go left to right, top to bottom, and not the other way around?

    If you go to the second image, does it order like you think it would?  I think what’s going on is that the category next/prev ‘loops’- unlike the weblog next/prev.  So for the very first and very last, it seems sort of quirky- because there isn’t a ‘next’ in the same group.

    Er- does that make sense?

    No, it still goes the wrong way. I think the answer may end up being a matter of changing the tags in my template, but it’s odd behavior. For the most part I have an unmodified gallery. I changed some of the CSS and that’s all. I will check the page on IE 7 for the PC and see if it’s a Safari for the mac thing (but I doubt it).

    I just checked my “image_full.php” template, and everything looks fine.

    I’m pretty convinced at this post that this is a bug. I didn’t make modifications to the code beyond the CSS, and the behavior is just weird. I think I’ll end up just reversing the next and previous tags and get the behavior I want, but not sure why it does it this way.
