Donna (YarnTomato) or anyone else:

I updated my crochet blog (a design inspired by your site Yarn Tomato) and I have been wanting to convert my picture gallery from Coppermine to Gallery. I didn't before this because I am not quite sure how to fix the css style sheets so that it look more like my blog, but then I noticed that the gallery at Yarn Tomato has been so nicely integrated into blog design. So, I was wondering how you to do this. I would love to do it myself, but if anyone can do this form me, I would be happy to pay in crochet supplies. Thanks.

My blog is at http://crochetmyway.visualrhetoric.org
My old gallery is http://visualrhetoric.org/gallery
My NEW gallery is at http://visualrhetoric.org/mygallery

Thanks again,
Kristina

Because my site is set up with tables, all I had to do was edit the wrapper.header.default and wrapper.footer.default files in order to get my gallery to look like my blog. So, basically, Gallery is operating independently (with it's own css) inside of a <td> in my blog layout. I hope that makes sense.

I got all the info I needed by going to the Gallery discussion forums and searching for stuff. I wish I could help more, but integrating gallery is totally different with css than with tables. I did see some discussion of that (making Gallery look like your web site with css) on the forums and it made me :faint .

I'm leaving today and will be gone for the weekend, so If you ask more questions and I'm not answering, it's 'cause I'm not around. :wink I'll be back Monday afternoon.

Thanks so much!!! That really does help. Maybe I can use the tables instead of the css to make my gallery work. I'll let you know what happens.
