Hello,

I want to know if its possible to customize the default menu that comes with the gallery.

Look here

Anyway to integrate that with the "quicklinks" menu that I have right below it? Or any other way I can improve it?

Thanks

Yes - theme.php

Just modify your quicklinks into theme.php in the following section:// HTML template for main menu
$template_main_menu = <<<EOT
                <span class="topmenu">
<!-- BEGIN album_list -->
                        <a href="{ALB_LIST_TGT}" title="{ALB_LIST_TITLE}">{ALB_LIST_LNK}</a> ::
<!-- END album_list -->

...
etc


The rest of the sections can be modified accordingly as well. Just remember to make a backup before you do your editing.

Thanks moorey.

So, I can add javamenu/pictures instead of using the text links? That would be cool.

thx :)

If you mean a DHTML menu (using JavaScript/CSS): yes you can. You can do all client-sided stuff.

There's always a lot of confusion: Java and JavaScript are not the same thing; in fact they're not even remotely related

Technically, yes - just make sure you know what you're doing. It's standard HTML, so if you conform to it, there's no reason why it wouldn't work.  Trial and error, really.
