Photo gallery designed for Joomla, which allows you to view the images published on Google and Flickr. The skin 'Fuerte', the new skin 'Nano' (only in the 5.x version) and the new skin 'jGallery' (only in the 5.x version), made using jQuery, suit perfectly to the new responsive templates, which adapt automatically to the resolutions of the devices that display the site (smartphones, tablets, netbooks, etc)
