Using CSS inline styles in HTML tags like "<td style="width: 100%">" makes it really hard to style the gallery by myself. Overwriting these tags is really hard, maybe impossible for much people. This could be the reason for the few styles available for Coppermine-Gallery.

Btw: The verification on register AND posting really makes no fun. I know the problems of bots, but if posting is only allowed to registered users, the capcha may be enough at registering and maybe could be removed at posting for registered users, since others are not allowed to post anything.

To make it more clear (it may be unclear):

Coppermine itselfs is rendering (giving out) CSS within HTML tags, which makes it hard to style (create themes) for coppermine with CSS.

Can you please post some examples where that inline CSS occurs?

<table align="center" width="600" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" class="maintable ">
                      <td class="tableb" width="40%">Benutzername</td>
                      <td class="tableb" width="60%"><input type="text" class="textinput" name="username" style="width: 100%" tabindex="1" /></td>
<div class="footer" align="center" style="padding:10px;display:block;visibility:visible; font-family: Verdana,Arial,sans-serif;">Powered by <a href="http://coppermine-gallery.net/" title="Coppermine Photo Gallery" rel="external">Coppermine Photo Gallery</a></div>

And that only on the login page. Also the classes could be given better, so the creators of themes could be more free at their work and distinguish more elements.

Btw: As there are remote exploits available for Coppermine, I would suggest you to add an option to remove the HTML comment which provides the version number of Coppermine. Thanks for reading and your answer.

You're welcome to contribute code change proposals for the next major release (cpg1.6.x).

Security through obscurity is no option imo. But we don't need to discuss that in this thread.

in that cause what I suggest is that
we can use external CSS file that will keep the style information away from the page code
also its good practice for many features for example we can have 3 style files and invoke them depending on what user desire using PHP function that uses style number as parameter.
also, it will be easier if just define the class or the ID in the html tags
I can slightly help in CSS cause I have some background but I like to contribute in PHP coding more than CSS
