Contacts Gallery Album??

So under the different peoples contact profile it has a second called "Gallery" and under every contact it always says no Albums. So i was wondering how can I create albums for my different contacts? Or How can albums appear under a specific contact? For example, under my girlfriends contact info i would like an album of just pics of her. Please help.
I guess its your lucky day man, I myself came across this BS this afternoon while setting up my GF in myFav. I had her photo in mSD and I tried so many ways to put her photos in "Gallery" and failed. So I dug a little and found that only way to have anything display there is if you have the contact added to your social networking and your logged on for example facebook.

Google Hangouts creates posts

Guys ...this is weird... i shared some pictures with a friend over Hangouts the Talk replacement, however it created G+ posts for each picture.... How did it do that? Better yet....WHY? My friend has an iPhone does that have anything to do with it? And she does have the actual Hangouts app....if anyone can chime in I would greatly appreciated.
That is why I can't stand this G+ integration.
I once updated all my contacts pictures by uploading pics, and all of them were uploaded to my G+, awkward to have an album with people's pictures.
So I deleted my G+, I hate how everything gets posted there and having to delete it, before it would auto upload to Picasa, which is annoying also, but its not as awkward, I just quickly delete the album.
As for your problem, I have no clue, I would just make sure you always go back and delete XD
We figured it out, she was replying through her desktop using Gmail and was commenting on each picture individually.... glad I figured it out.

Blurry contact images

OK, this is really a general android question but I'm asking it here because other solutions I've seen on the web seem to be for specific phones/versions of Android.
I've just recently bought the G2 after spending almost three years with an iPhone and I absolutely love it. But I was stunned to find out that one of the old issues that drove me crazy about Android still exists. The blurry contact images when someone calls. I've googled the net and read a lot about it and I can't seem to come up with a fix that won't be too time consuming. I've found apps that will sync hi-res photos from facebook but they stop there. I have a lot of work contacts that are pulled from LinkedIN and I don't want to ignore them. I'm also not interested in getting pictures of everyone I know and manually linking them with some third party app that will overwrite the pixelated 96x96 google profile picture. So....what are you more experienced Android users doing for this?
i had all my contacts backed up in google and i am coming from s4, even pictures taken with s4 and set as contacts come blurry, but worked fine on s4, the only think i tired which worked from me is to edit the contact by selecting the same picture if you have it on your phone and they come out fine in g2 contacts, odd

[Q] Can't Restore/View Google+ photos in Gallery App

Hi All,
I'm a newbie but a long-time follower of this site, so please excuse me of any ignorance. I tried searching for my issue but didn't find anything relevant, hence posting here.
I have ATT Stock Samsung Galaxy S4. I have one primary google account(A) which takes care of apps downloading, gmail etc. I also added another google account(B) mainly to manage my Photos. So, whenever I take new photos, I have instant upload/auto-backup for this account B. My sd card just crashed couple of days and I have formatted it and it's all good to go now.
Now, I am looking for ways to see all my google+ photos of Account B in my Gallery app since auto-sync is turned on. While it shows up everything in Google+ photos app, I would prefer to see everything in Gallery app. I tried changing "Content to Display" in Gallery settings to show Picasa as well Device photos, but it keeps showing account A's picasa web albums and not account B.
I am really tired of looking everywhere, so I'm hoping one of you could patiently help me.
Thanks!
