hey there - i don't know why i decided to stay up and do this after i said i was too busy, but i've now made thumbnails for every listed project in the Exhibitions, ready to upload and deploy to the submission page.
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's done in Plone or whether one needs an addon for it to make it easier.
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.

Hi Scott,
nice one, thanks. Where are the thumbnails?
I also had a similar idea about the Exhibition page, grid-like layout, pretty classical but nice. However, I can't do that with css only as Plone uses tables.. (aarrrrrrgghhh)
So, I will have to look into this and figure out something. You mentioned an addon to modify only a single page, do you have a link?

The grid idea sounds good, something like this? http://processing.org/exhibition/
I think the exhibition page will require some python customization, I think want we want is called a Template, but I could be wrong: http://plone.org/products/plonetemplates
