I've got one page on a site where I want to have a different skin (it's a gallery and to keep the pictures close to the top of the page I've removed part of the header design).

That's no problem right? I assign a different skin for the page.

But the module uses ctl=viewmedia to call a different control when viewing the pictures.  It seems that having this in the querystring invokes the admin skin instead of the page skin.

Now of course if I want to change the gallery page I'm faced with changing all admin pages (and any other pages that use a similar module referenced by ctl=whatever) to use the admin skin.  It also dumps the other content of the page (ie the modules in the other panes).  This behaviour isn't ideal... I only want the gallery page to change.

Is there any way to get around this?  I have the source -- is there a 'best practice' that could avoid this?

Is the only way to avoid the ctl=whatever by using hidden panels to show/hide the current content.  Or pump content into a placeholder completely dynamically.  Or something like that?
