What is the best module?

I have a PERSONAL site where it will have articles about items I have built. I want to see if there is a module that I can write the body of the article and then post multiple images in that article.

Example page:

Can I do something like that with any of the modules out there?

Or will I just have to pick an article system and hand code the img src stuff into it that points to some directories on my website?

THANKS

They have the magazine module, dunno if that fits your needs.

Probably the easiest way I can think of (off the top of my head) is to use the news module, but build/write your article with w.blogger. It's more convenient (I find anyways) for adding pics/content/links etc.

That's my thoughts anyways, wish I could of pointed you to the exact thing you needed.

NOt sure Im really understanding your question, because nearly all article modules can include images as you suggest. Wether you use a wysywyg editor or XOOPS form editor.

Reading between your lines, I think you want an easy way to insert images, right?

Learn to use the image manager in xoops. Here you can upload as many images as you want, create categories and permissions for using them and then user the Resized Image button to open a page of thumbnails of your uploaded images.

Use this when creating an article in a module. No manual coding required using this method

It's awesome tool for your news. I have several users that use it to submit news - and I use it as well to build my news posts offsite.

I'm looking for something similar. It needs to be a product catalog, like a shopping cart without the acutal cart. My client takes all his orders over the phone or fax due to the customized nature of the product, but he still needs to be able to list the items, add descriptions, pricing and images.
