I'll see if we can enable album views.

Yes, I use Firefox.
Album views I think will be even more handy. Imagine for example, that I have a photo under the gallery "Greek Islands". While I know in which gallery that photo is, I need to go from page to page until I find it as of now. And what if it appears on the last pages? Too much hassle I think.
If album view is possible to be implemented then we can go straight to the album and navigate only through the specific album's pages.

Not to mention that a text search by name could be even more handy than anything

Anyway, I don't know how possible is to implement what I'm thinking.


Regards

George

Re: Quick gallery photo forum posting!

I noticed that 'Archangel' had a full size image showing while I, and others, appear to have thumbnails

Re: Quick gallery photo forum posting!

There's a drop-down menu that allows you to choose from

Thumbnail only
Original image
Clickable thumbnail to gallery
Clickable thumbnail to new window (opens the gallery pic in a new window)

To the right of those option, there's another drop-down menu that lets you choose whether to have it
Inline
Aligned centre
Aligned right
Aligned left.

You'll see the drop-down windows along the top, just above the thumbnails.

There are a few different options there. You linked a thumb (instead of the full size photo) that actually throws you back to the gallery. Choose "Full size image" from the upper menu choices, that what it does is actually copying the link of your photo into the thread's post.

Re: Will work for private mails too

I forgot mention that this will work for the forum's Private Mail system as well.

Re: Quick gallery photo forum posting!

This looks good Ian. But I only get a few of the thumbnails showing - the rest are spaces bounded by vertical bars. (I'm using Firefox).... Trying one - Hmmm I asked for the original image but the thumbnail shows up in the preview....
