Ok, thanks Scott.<div>I&#39;m gonna look into this.</div><div><br></div><div>Apparently, the simple command could also work fine.</div><div>I&#39;m not sure about addons at the moment, as the version of Plone we use is apparently a bit out of date.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Also, I don&#39;t know about the feasibility of requiring a thumbnail for each project added to the exhibition page.</div><div>I mean, I agree, but don&#39;t know if we can implement that, or we would need another addon.</div>

The grid idea sounds good, something like this?<br><a href="http://processing.org/exhibition/" target="_blank">http://processing.org/exhibition/</a></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>yup, exactly like that... </div></div>

<br></div><div><br></div><div>i&#39;m attaching the zip file of the thumbnails here. they are ordered by order of appearance on the Exhibition page. basically i just took an appropriate screen from each video.</div><div class="im">

<div><a href="http://plone.org/documentation/kb/create-a-photo-album" target="_blank">http://plone.org/documentation/kb/create-a-photo-album</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>this method looks like the easiest with static content. however, i think this is content generated by each poster to the Exhibition page from an entry form with tabs for various sections entered by each user. </div>

<div><br></div><div>so first we need to modify the form to add a thumbnail tab for future entries and then display the output results as a grid form with unique links for each title and picture thumbnail pair. i think the CMS should be able to configure the entry so that the text title and picture automatically link to the picture. some sort of character width per grid would need to be set.</div>

<div><br></div><div>this link might be helpful:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.noenieto.com/blog/theming-plone-4-part-2" target="_blank">http://www.noenieto.com/blog/theming-plone-4-part-2</a><br></div><div>

</div>here are the links to the addons i found for plone. this is one found by searching &#39;photo&#39;:<div><br></div><div><a href="http://plone.org/products/collective.gallery" target="_blank">http://plone.org/products/collective.gallery</a><br>

</div><div><br></div><div>also found this one sometime later. looks more full featured but maybe a bit overkill?:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://plone.org/products/plone-true-gallery" target="_blank">http://plone.org/products/plone-true-gallery</a><br>

</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>as far as having a template, yes i believe you&#39;d either need to change the template for that center section on the top Exhibition page or have an addon modify behavior or layout on that template.</div>

<br></div><div>what i propose is to place the images in a grid style, with brief text below. clicking on either the image or the text will then send you to the defined Exhibition subpage for that entry. so we need a way to distribute a bunch of thumbnail images with text, in a grid or table like format, 3 or 4 across. not sure how exactly that&#39;s done in Plone or whether one needs an addon for it to make it easier.<div>



<br></div><div>if you think the design is cool then the thumbnail should be a requirement for anyone wanting to post something in the Exhibition section. just add it to the form for Exhibition submissions.</div></div><span><font color="#888888"><div>
