The stock photo gallery on the Optimus has nice animation and a nice look to it, but I find it to load very slowly most of the time. Sometimes it doesn't load at all and I have to close out then reopen again for it to work. I discovered a very cool photo gallery that is WAY faster than the stock gallery. It is called QuickPic from alensw.com Loads super fast, and has a lot of nice options. FREE! Check it out, and compare.
