    Great plugin! I have created a custom layout here: http://wp.sitebrew.net/?page_id=1422

    Any idea how I would modify my layout to put thumbnails of the other photos in the gallery lined up below the one image?

    Thanks!

    Hi Whinton,

    Elizabethanne has done something like that with PhotoSmash here: http://www.elizabethannedesigns.com/blog/wedding-ideas/bouquets/

    But my guess is that it wasn't easy. But it does look quite awesome. You might ping her and see if she had any pointers on how she did it.

    EA, if you're reading this and it's something that people can do without lots of trouble, I'd be glad to post a tutorial on that if you had one ;-)

    Cheers,
    Byron

    hi whinton! i got your email and will respond, but in case anyone else is picking up the thread...

    i used a jquery plugin called galleriffic. http://www.twospy.com/galleriffic/index.html

    and byron is right, it wasn't fun. but, using that plugin along with all of the functions that byron put into the layout editor for photosmash, including the wrapper and custom css functionality, i was finally able to get it working. the quick and dirty is this:

    * ftp galleriffic up to your wordpress theme
    * create a new page template for your galleries and include the call to jquery and galleriffic
    * create a new photosmash layout:
    - call both the thumb and the large div in the html layout, along with whatever other information you want, in my example i have a caption div with a ton of info in it
    - in the wrapper section use all of the divs for galleriffic slideshows to let the jquery know what's where
    - in the custom css section, style everything

    i hope that at least made a little sense to anyone else trying this!
