Hello,

I installed myalbum-p 2.84 last night and all seems to be working fine but i was wondering if somebody could help me out with 2 things.

First, does anyone know of a hack for the recent photos block to make it display random pictures? I guess if I could have my way, I'd like it to display perhaps always 3 random images.

Secondly, I was wondering if somebody knew of how to modify the template. What I'd like is for the images to display horizontally instead of vertically.

Out of these two, I guess the 2nd one is more important to me. If anyone can help me out with this, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

Chris

Anyone?

I figured out the layout issue, so now I have that looking the way I want, but does anyone know of a hack to have a random photo block instead of recent photos?

THanks,

Chris

I can't say that I do, but I believe the xcGal module allows random displaying of images. I suppose it depends on your exact use and whether you can use MyAlbum for one thing, and xcGal for another.

Try posting on the Peak.Ne website, GIJOE may be able to help you.

I tried posting over there 4 or 5 days ago, but not a response yet by anyone.

I've never looked at that other module i guess. I used to use xoopsgallery or whatever it is called, and it has worked really well for me in the past, but it requires either ImageMagick or... I can't remember what the other thing is called. Anyways, the webhost for this site doesn't have either of those, but it does have GD (?) which works with MyAlbum. Hmm, I wonder if this one you mentioned would work....

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

I thought the Pic Up Photo block was the random one. At least it appears to be random images on my sites.

Heh, you're right. It appears that it will only switch pictures every XX amount of seconds, and the default was 60 seconds. I kept refreshing the page, but apparently i got bored before the minute was up.

Thanks,

Chris
