Photo galleries with Views Attach
Jeff Eaton posted a pretty cool demonstration video on Blip.tv showing a way to create photo galleries using the Views Attach module.
Interesting method of collecting photos together. A couple of questions come to mind for me.
How does using a Gallery node versus a Gallery vocab/term limit or change things? Like adding a photo to more than one Gallery node? I can free tag with taxonomy.
Another thing that was not demonstrated. Since there is some context applied gallery <-> photo, when viewing the photo can we have next/previous links? We shouldn't need javascript slideshow type stuff to do this.
Good stuff.

This is a nice technique - thanks for sharing, I'm sure those other modules will come in handy on many other projects too!
Another site I saw with some pretty cool tutorials is:
drupaltherapy.com
in particular gmaps and location
dates and calendar
and feedapi
A couple of questions - using
A couple of questions - using this gallery setup as a base, what would need to be done to have the images uploaded into each gallery be saved in a different places in the 'files' directory based on the Gallery name?
Secondly, would it be possible using node reference to have sub-galleries within main galleries? And given that, having the uploaded files reside in different directories depending upon the gallery and sub-gallery name?
An excellent video anyway! This knowledge is very helpful for my new project (still, need to work more on it implying sound files I get by mp3 search ) I'm also trying to add some style using CSS Injector, and that doesn't seem to be working. Here is the code I've added: img, a img {border:0 none; padding-right:5px !important;}
I will be sure to field this
I will be sure to field this question at our group meeting this evening and see what comes back from everyone.
We would love to have you stop in as well if time allows! Here is the link to the meeting info: http://nashvilledrupalers.com/event/datetime-change-march-2010-nashville....
