There's a bug in the widget permissions.

If a member creates a private gallery (the contents of which are only viewable to his own contacts and moderators) and uploads photos to it, the widget displays the photo info such as:

> Tester uploaded new photo: Picture 2

This is displayed to all members, however non-contact members can't see the thumbnail.

The "items" option seems to do nothing.. I've tested it dozens of times (yes I cleared the cache).. Whether I set it to 1 ,5 10, etc it always pulls multiple items from some categories like profile changes/etc. Can someone explain if I am understanding this option correctly?
