Very recently I've installed gallery for gallery2 and Image.
The former because gallery gives a lot of options for uploading
images, because it support video and embedded content from other
sites (flickr, youtube).

I used Image on my personal site because I need a very clean method
to build up simple galleries.

I find that tweaking the layout of Image is much easier than tweaking
gallery + gallery2.

What do you think the shortcomings of Image are?
