This is a case where it looks like some custom intermap links
would be very useful.  For example, if you add the following line
to local/localmap.txt:

   Gallery      http://www.soundchasers.com/uploads/Gallery/$1

then each of your images becomes markup like:

   Gallery:Animals_of_the_Countryside/thumb-Animals_of_the_Countryside_01a.jpg
   Gallery:Animals_of_the_Countryside/thumb-Animals_of_the_Countryside_02a.jpg
   Gallery:Animals_of_the_Countryside/thumb-Animals_of_the_Countryside_03a.jpg

On your local system, you would probably define local/localmap.txt with:

   Gallery      http://localhost/uploads/Gallery/$1

and the same markup would result in links to localhost instead of
soundchasers.com.

It is possible to do something like this, or at least it is
if you use either a real http:// url or an intermap link as I've
described above.

  [[Gallery.AoC01 | Gallery:escher_tux.jpg]]
