Whether it is a website on photography, catalogs, or an online family album, you will need a reliable image gallery extension to do the job for you. Better if both the gallery and comments tool work smoothly together so you could save more time in development. You could search the JED for the right Joomla extensions for the perfect combo but in this blog, you don't need to search far -- we've got just the right recommendations for you.
