The pop up repeats a lot of the information that's under the thumbnail anyway. Additons are the stats and the actually upload date rather than age of the image, so it IS a big pop up for a lot of repeated information.   I guess not putting the info under the thumbnail is down to space?   But when you give people the choice of the number of thumbnails to display on one page, that's kind of a moot point.

"Well everyone wanted to see the number of views, comments, etc and this is the way they resolved this member request....."   -  Well yeah, but pop ups probably not the way forward, but a good temporary work around.    

Once they put an profile option "show mouse overs in galleries"  and "show stats under thumbnails"  then everyone will be happier.

I'm sure the first few weeks are going to see quite a fluidity in the gallery features as problems and issues are discussed and resolved.    So I don't think we can be too harsh about a  little weirdness to start with.
