Help with album module

[thepieman]

Hi

I've uploaded the album module to my CMSMS, I've uploaded images to the Album module and placed the relevant line of code into my pages.

The problem is that I can only see a thumbnail, in the control panel for this module it informs me that there are no images but I have clearly uploaded images to this module.

While on the subject of albums, I'm trying to create a portfolio of the websites I've created, I'd like to place a row of thumbnails onto the page but with hyper links attached so that when the site visitor clicks on any of these thumbnails they are taken to the relevant website.

Does anyone know of a module that does this? My only other alternative is to physically build the structrue using HTML and hyperlinking each thumbnail.

Many thanks

Album uses the images in uploads/images.
You add an album (Content -> Photo Albums in the menu) on the tab Albums and then edit the album to select the images it contains (using the "Add pictures" link).

Not sure, but maybe the cataloger module can be used for that:

You can do the "links to other sites" with out using the Album module if you want, You would add the images while editing the content of a page and make links while adding images, the add image box has a tab for links.

If you want to use the Album module you can make links out of the comment for each image, the comment looks like a paper and pencil and when you make/add a comment you get the edit box just like adding content...

or

You could use the news module and just have the image as a summary and link it to the site, this would entail making a new template for the news to only show the summary and they could be catagorized so you can have them in diff. pages or arranged on a page in a certain order...
