Finally happy with NextGEN gallery!

At last! After changing a few more settings, this time on the “slide show” page I have managed to get the flash slide show to work as I want it. It now displays in a 500 by 500 pixel box, with the “slow zooming effect” and random transitions between photos. After setting the “stretch image” option to false the images now display at their correct aspect ratio. Here is the slideshow of my 20 portfolio images that I put together for the 307CMC – Photography and Digital Imaging module:

I have also implemented the NextGEN gallery widget, which I have set up to show four random photos from all galleries. It looks like this:

    Hi Tom.

    sorry to be contacting you… but since i have already contacted the peeps who run the NextGen Gallery Widget.. i still have no answer…
    you seem to have the answer…

    On your NextGen widget.. when you click on the thumbs it opens a nice image viewer over your page… How did you do this? when i activate my widget and click on the thumbs, it leads directly to the image path. YUK.

    any help would be much appreciated.

    regards.

    Hi Tom,
    can you let me know how to configure the NextGen widget . I can only get it to show images in a vertical column and I like your 4 square thumbs. Can you let me know what code you used and where it goes.
    Thank you,
    Jonah
