Open up your app/config/packages/angel/core/config.php and add the galleries routes to the menu array:

'menu' => array(

...and the menu-linkable models to the linkable_models array:

'linkable_models' => array(
    'Page'             => 'pages',
    'Gallery'          => 'galleries', // <--- Add this line
)

Open up your app/config/packages/angel/galleries/config.php and define your desired thumbnail settings. The default is:

array(
    'thumbs' => array(
        't' => array(
            'width' => 75,
            'height' => 75,
            'crop' => 1,
            'enlarge' => 1,
            'path' => '/uploads/images/t/'
        ),
        's' => array(
            'width' => 150,
            'height' => 150,
            'crop' => 1,
            'enlarge' => 1,
            'path' => '/uploads/images/s/'
        ),
        'm' => array(
            'width' => 300,
            'height' => 300,
            'crop' => 0,
            'enlarge' => 1,
            'path' => '/uploads/images/m/'
        ),
        'l' => array(
            'width' => 600,
            'height' => 600,
            'crop' => 0,
            'enlarge' => 0,
            'path' => '/uploads/images/l/'
        )
    )
)

Finally, make sure you actually create the directories where the thumbnail images will be saved. These paths are relative to the /public/ folder (ex: /public/uploads/images/t/).
