   This is the code I used for my gallery. Is this the best/easiest way to put the code? I plan on having more images upload.

   1. I need my images to show in 3 columns. There's plenty of room for it.
   2. I've looked at wp-ecommerce. Dont like it. What is the easiest shopping cart to use, where someone can buy a painting? I want the shopping cart integrated with the fancy_image gallery page. One way could be to add paypal buttons under each image. How would I do that?
   3. I need to have the description show under the image not just on the popup image.
   4. How can I remove the thumbnails from the homepage slider?

   For example:
   Solaris
   24x24
   Acrylic/Mixed Media

   [fancy_images width = '250' height = '250' title = "Running Back to Blue",width = '250' height = '250' title = "Solaris",width = '250' height = '250' title = "Jenx",width = '250' height = '250' title = "Miami Cool"]

   Hello lisa2lisa,

   1. To get three columns then you can use the column shortcodes. See here for more information,

   2. Paypal is a viable solution. It would be best to consult them first to get an idea of what it takes to setup. http://www.paypal.com

   3. Go ahead and show us an example of your page, are you talking about the portfolio? Or are you creating your own page and want to show a description under each image?

   4. Navigate to Dashboard -> Awake -> Slider and you can choose between "Fading" slider or "Tabbed" slider.

   As for your about page go ahead and send us a link to it so we can take a closer look at what is going on.

   Thanks for the quick response.

   All my issues are solved except the description under the images and the paypal.

   I'm not using the "portfolio" and dont want to. I'm just using code for fancy_images for my gallery page. http://risaelleart.com/gallery
   I need to put a description underneath, for example:
   Name of image:
   size:
   medium:

   Then I need to put a buy button under that. I have my paypal code. Whats the best way to make these edits? Can I add to the header.php? Will that take html code? I just need to know where to put the code (for description and paypal button)

   You can try something like this,

   [one_third]
   [fancy_images]LINK TO IMAGE[/fancy_images]
   <p>Name of Image:</p>
   <p>Size:</p>
   <p>Medium:</p>
   paypal code
   [/one_third]

   Alright, it worked after a lot of tweaking. I had to create a table under the image to get the description and my papal button formatted right. The image has a description under it as well as on the popout.

   So my gallery has 3 columns (3 images per row). Every third image has to have [one_third_last] vs [one_third].
   Only used the HTML tab, Visual tab messes everything up.

   Posted my code in hopes that it'll help someone with a similar design.

   [one_third]
   [fancy_images width = '250' height = '250' title = "My Title"]My full url to image[/fancy_images]
   <table style="height: 50px;" width="281">
   <tbody>
   <tr>
   <td>description/caption under image</td>
   <td>< paypal code</td>
   </tr>
   </tbody>
   </table>
   [/one_third]

   [one_third]
   [fancy_images width = '250' height = '250' title = "My Title"]My full url to image[/fancy_images]
   <table style="height: 50px;" width="281">
   <tbody>
   <tr>
   <td>description/caption under image</td>
   <td>< paypal code</td>
   </tr>
   </tbody>
   </table>
   [/one_third]

   [one_third_last]
   [fancy_images width = '250' height = '250' title = "My Title"]My full url to image[/fancy_images]
   <table style="height: 50px;" width="281">
   <tbody>
   <tr>
   <td>description/caption under image</td>
   <td>< paypal code</td>
   </tr>
   </tbody>
   </table>
   [/one_third_last]

   Another issue I was having initially was my images not showing up in the slider and the gallery. I had different variations of my path (just http, www, public_html/...). So what works is http://www.mysite.com/wp-content/path to image.

   Thanks for great support!
