Thanks for your reply, Steven. I agree with your assumption. Perhaps a note about it in the docs would help those of us who want to tidy up. Aside from the cruft, the space savings at ~277kb per gallery can add up if you have a lot.

Topic: jbcore folder changed during Import (3 replies, posted in Showkase Support)
The 'Using an External jbcore Folder' section in the Juicebox Embedding Guide describes how to share the jbcore folder between multiple galleries, a nice optimization! I discovered that after using Import in Showkase on a gallery built with JuiceboxBuilder, the jbcore folder specified in the 'START JUICEBOX EMBED' script src in the resultant gallery's index.html file uses this technique. Now, instead of pointing to the jbcore subfolder that is copied to the gallery folder during Import, it points to the external shared folder _viewers/juicebox/jbcore. So why does Import copy the jbcore subfolder if the gallery's going to use a different jbcore folder?
Is it safe to delete the jbcore subfolder that is copied to the gallery folder during Import? As a test, I deleted it and have not seen any difference in the gallery or website's behavior. I'd like to delete it if it's not being used. I'm using the Showkase Boma theme v1.7.4 and JuiceboxBuilder-Pro v1.5.1.
Thanks,
Brian
