Hi there,

I almost have everything on my website customized to my liking but I have 2 questions:

1. I noticed that when I have a small amount of galleries under one category, the thumbnails are large. When there are more than 5 (?) the thumbnails go smaller. Is there a way to force them to always be large?

2. Is there a quick way to remove:
5 galleries with 179 photos.

from all my galleries without going into the gallery settings? I have a lot of galleries with different settings and I would like to be rid of this information with one easy step if possible!

Thanks a lot :)

1. No way to change the thumb sizes.

2. Where do you see this?

1. I was pretty sure that I saw someone change them all to small! hmm. Too bad :(

2. I see it here:
http://www.grly.net/Family

I started to manually change them here http://www.grly.net/Photography to "clean" under the customize section but that's going to take a lot of work with my other 100+ galleries.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Add this to your CSS to remove on all pages.

So is there a reason that these thumbs are big: http://www.grly.net/Portraits

and these are small? http://www.grly.net/Family

I really can't force them?

Sorry to be a pest!

If 5 or less they are 150x150. If 6 or more they are 100x100.

ok :/ Thanks anyways.

One last thing! haha (sorry)

How can I remove the sub-categories title here http://www.grly.net/Family and http://www.grly.net/Friends. I managed to remove categories but not sub-categories.

Then I think I am done. :clap

You can use this to remove the subcategories title everywhere:
#subCatGalleryTitle {
display: none;
}
Of if you just want to remove it from a specific category, you can add the category name like this:

.category_Family #subCatGalleryTitle {
display: none;
}
Of course now that you've removed your category, subcategory, and gallery titles, and you have also removed the breadcrumb, you just ran into a pet peeve of mine. You now have a site where your viewers have absolutely no idea where they are. Please take a look at my post Are you really sure you want to hide the breadcrumb? Think of your viewers! (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=111484)

You should either put the breadcrumb back or add a title to your gallery descriptions + replace the category & subcategory titles.

Correct you are. I put the breadcrumb back and I appreciate the input.

Thanks a lot for everyone's help!

Hi Anita,

Just a thought on the issue you have with Large and Small thumbs...
I haven't tried this myself, but some people are creating a new gallery within the catagory and addding a single BLACK image (or the same colour background to the Galleries view) and playing with removing or changing border colours so it looks invisible when viewed in the Catagory view.
Not perfect as it is still clickable, but adding enough BLANK galleries could be a way to force the thumbs to small.

Just a thought... depends how important this is to you

Cool! That would work if I wanted them all small but I was hoping to be able to have all large thumbs for my galleries. :(

Thanks for trying to help though :)
