Actually, it does work (partially) but the documentation needs to be
updated so people who don't want to download an entire site can do so.

The -r flag to wget means recursive, and defaults to 5 levels of
directory traversal (e.g. 
wget -r http://www.example.com/1/2/3/4/5/index.html would download all 5
directories of www.example.com)

To download a single item, you need to add -l 1 to the wget command to
limit the levels of recursion.

I would post a message in the Gallery 1.x Troubleshooting and Problems
forum at http://gallery.menalto.com/forum/44 or file a bug on
www.sf.net/projects/gallery if there isn't one already.

http://gallery.menalto.com/node/10511 mentions adding &set_offline=true
to the same URL you would use to browse that album:

http://www.example.com/gallery/view_album.php?set_albumName=myalbum&set_offline=true

Using short URLs might be causing some issues as well.
