Hey, does anyone know how I can add a tag cloud to the top of the photo gallery? I mean forget trying to use albums to organize the photos... Ning's gallery system is horrible.

Oh yeah!

Sorry!
I forgot stating a simple opinion (not to mention singularly so) yielded no assistance from a social media platform (one of which I've purchased 'premium services' from as well as personally promoted since the beginning). Let me also apologize for DEMANDING that they fix their gallery for my network and not asking how I could potentially improve it by implementing a tag cloud..

I'm so ashamed of my ego right now.
There are a variety of 3rd party tag cloud software that will take a site or a page of the site and make a tag cloud of the words on the page. It is a static method, however, and you have to redo the cloud periodically.

I usually just search Google and use the first two or three that show up in the search results.
Hmmm interesting. It would gather words from the page and use them as tags?
I'm looking for a solution that would work with the tags user have already input for particular photos.

But I'll still take a look on Google, thanks!
I'm also looking too! And I think your criticism is justified and shouldn't be attacked. Not just because we are paying but we put faith in Ning doing some standard things eventually....still waiting on a lot of standard stuff. Should be easy to just use the tags and give us that functionality (rather than wait for some open source developer to do it half arsed as most are...).

there used to be a tag cloud on the videos and photos, think it might have been removed along the way. Wee'll add it to the Apps Club at www.ningmods.com in Release 2.
The old tag cloud software still lives in the Ning system, we'll look to restore it for users. Join up at www.ningmods.com and we'll keep you updated on progress.
