hmm,
withour any coding afaik you can "prepare" a ZIP where all the variants of a 
gallery image (thumbnail / preview / full) are still in by filename convention 
- but this is not practical for typical end users.

Automatical "cropping" (not as resoizing/scaling) makes no sense as it is 
nearly impossible to write some code which is able to recognize the right 
content focus on any image like or nearly like as a human.

It makes much sense to crop any thumbnail in the gallery by hand as it does 
not seems nice if you have preview images with different length/side 
proportions and are not able to tell a program wheer and how some image has be 
be cropped automatically (except very specialized applications with images of 
a defined size and content placements). 

The only exception is if you just have images which has all the same length/ 
height proportion - i.e. quadratical - then you can use autoamtical resizing 
of the whole image content to get same proportioned images.

Otherwise it could makes sense to use another Ajax gallery solution (whioch 
not optical relys on same proportioned images) and implement it as ZMS object 
which is more suitable for images with different length/height proportions. 
I've fiddeled different ones att, because my users / customers had very 
different requirements for their "galleries" regarding handling/usage and 
layout rules.
