This plugin will allow you to put one of the meny Gallery2 Image Blocks on your WordPress site. You are required to have a running Gallery2 install to use this plugin.

This is a complete rewrite of Chris Schierer (aka Lentil) Gallery2 Image Block Plugin 0.1.4. This rewrite uses the new WordPress 2.8 Widget API, so is only compatable with wordpress 2.8+.
