Okay, I'm trying to create a new gallery. I got the name "Perspective Drawings" but I can't seem to add images. Also, the order of my galleries, etc. is now all whacky. Feel like I'm gumming up the works. I created it using the nested feature because it was the only way, it seemed. Is there a simpler way to create a new gallery? Are there a limited number of galleries available? Can I use a "Biography" gallery for an image gallery? I don't really understand how the nested galleries work. Is this explained/shown on the icompendium web site. Sorry Van. We can do this via email if this is too much for a forum. Plus, I'm out now for the afternoon, so can't do fixes until this eve. Whew. Thanks.

Hi,
I just checked your site and see that you have an empty gallery call "Perspective Drawings" there. I just added some new features that should help here...

If you upload an image (using the Choose File or Browse button at the bottom of the page) and it doesn't upload, there should be a message that indicates why it's not uploading. For instance, it might be too large. And if you want, you can always email me an image that's not uploading and I can check it out. Also, you should be able to reorder your galleries now by dragging and dropping them into place in the Admin Panel. Let me know if you have any trouble with this.

As well, there's no limit to the number of image galleries you can create. The easiest way to create a new image gallery is to go to the Advanced Options of any existing image gallery, then check Yes next to Create a New Image Gallery and Save Changes at the bottom.

Image galleries and any other pages can be added to nested links pages. Here's more on how this works:

Regarding the Biography page question -- Biography pages are set up to hold text rather than images, so it may not work for you what need. What are you trying to do with the Biography page?

Perhaps we can get together on phone (917 472 9997) whenever is good for you can I help answer some questions. This might be a quicker way to get things going. Let me know what sounds good to you.

Thanks! Van

Hi. Let me muck around a bit before hitting the panic button and calling. I wasn't interested in doing anything with the biography gallery except using it for images if I couldn't create a new image gallery. I'm fine leaving it as is if I can get the images up that I want there. I appreciate your response/help. Thanks.

Let me know if you get stuck. Calling is perfectly fine and might help us get some of the changes working faster. Hope this helps. Thanks, Van
