What is the name of your gallery so I can take a look? Most importantly, you need to change your description under settings -> seo.description.

Well, its quite important for me to know which one or what to search for so I can reproduce this result. I cannot find where it says "Gallery Software by ImagevueX: Photo Gallery Website and Mobile Portfolio for Photographers" in Google search. I did find "MJ Lindo Gallery. La Jicara - Una Nueva Vision. Gallery Software by ImagevueX: Photo Gallery Website and Mobile Portfolio for Photographers ›" ... It would help if you told me this, because it will always show your description before anything else, which it is clearly doing above ...

However, in your case, your description is simply too short ... So Google is taking the description and adding some more text that it finds on the page. If you want to make sure it does not display the imagevue text, you need to edit the file iv-includes/templates/default/index.gallery.phtml ...

Hello and thanks for your support.
Actually I have no problems
it then appears the description (imagevue) in the galleries,
because good things have to support them.
But it is good to know how to solve those details when a user ask me to remove it.
I will do a test and let you know.
Thank you.

Just add a much longer description under settings -> seo.description. You have already edited it before ... Right now, as you can see in your own snapshots, Google is already putting your description first, but since it wants to add more, it gets some text from inside the source.

... and for the index.gallery.phtml file, just change some of the stuff on line ~173:
Code
Gallery Software by ImagevueX:<br/>
					<a class="iv-ext" target="_blank" href="https://www.photo.gallery">Photo Gallery Website and Mobile Portfolio for Photographers</a> &rsaquo;
