Adding "Albums" to Home screen on 2.1

I searched the forum, but couldn't find an answer to this:

I just did the OTA 2.1 installation (from 1.5), and currently I'm setting up my home screens to match how they looked before the upgrade. I previously had an icon called "Albums" that would take me to a listing of video, camera, and download albums. I kind of remember installing it from Programs, but now I can't find it there. I've also looked under the HTC and Android widgets, and under Shortcuts, and it's nowhere to be found.

Anyone know how I can get it back?

Search your apps, it's now called "Photos"

Very true, don't know why they would change it to more of a misnomer... even the icon has both a photo and a "video" behind it.
