sorry. I realize that the support group is here to help and I really appreciate that. Just venting a bit.

I must say it is incredibly frustrating to me that there is no decent documentation for a lot of things in Drupal. There is no where I can go to read step by step what I should do to set up a Gallery of images as Cesar described above or a slideshow, as I have tried to do: successfully it seems but I have no idea how I did it. http://www.tony-mac.com/drupal/waldo#overlay-context=portfolio_view http://www.tony-mac.com/drupal/waldo#overlay-context=portfolio_view All I did was define a new view and entered the title and suddenly I got a slide show of all content, with my attempted Gallery Formatter content types mixed in. I was such a big fan of the IBM manuals! So exact; so clear.

Tony,
The content type handles the raw files, so you only have to create
one
field for the image upload.
For each individual node, Imagecache (which is built into D7) handles the resizing. When you install Gallery Formatter, it adds 2 sizes in Imagecache settings (one for slide and one for thumbnail).
For the /portfolio page (which uses Views), you can chose one of the existing/default sizes from Imagecache or create one that works for
the
width of your content area in your theme.
Very Respectfully, Cesar Covarrubias
