I personally don't know how, but stay tuned, maybe one of the volunteer experts here has an idea for you.

You could probably get that done, but you would need a provided that can process the forms for you. Do you have one?

Edit hold on, i may be thinking down the wrong track here, stay tuned.

are you looking for something like this:

Hit send, you'll see what it does. I just put this together quickly, but you can adapt it and make it nicer of course.

No problem :D
1) create a new gallery, which you make private
2) put the code you see below in the description
3) add this to your CSS: .gallery_XXXXXXX .nophotos (display: none;)
4) change the X's to the appropriate gallery number (let us know if you need help with that)
5) add a link to your navbar, by linking the gallery. Let us know if you need help with that as well.

this is perfect i love it it looks and says just what i want thank you so much

There is a problem with it tho.. *I use aol * just so you know
when i went to test it filled out some of the fields and click submit

I get this pop up form Microsoft internet explorer

this form is being submitted using e-mail
submitting this form will reveal your email address
to the Recipient and will send the form data without
encrypting it for pricacy you may continue or cancel subbmissions

continue or cancel

"when i click continue it dosent send the email it pops up a send mail form from my aol with the bc@billycarr.com email address already in the send to and no info in subject or main body

i thought that the form that we just made on my website would just send the info in the fields to the bc@ billycarr.com address when you click submit???

:scratch

did i do something Wrong:scratch :dunno
