I’m having a problem with the plugin ’subscribe-to-comments’ . The radio button and the text ‘Notify me of followup comments via e-mail’ ar not on the same line. The radio button is on top , and the text in on bottom of it. I don’t know what the problem is, i even tried to put them into a div with ‘nowrap’ tag but still doesen’t work. I see that on this page those 2 are on the same line. What can i do ? I did’t modify anything on the theme in this part nor into plugin so something is wrong.

Like I said, anyone can use single.php to create your own image.php (comparing with image.php from the default theme). However, what more and more people will be wanting are better looking gallery pages. That’s where you could really ‘wow’ people, I think, by adding your own signature to the galleries in your themes. For example, the current navigation (large thumbnails below the image being viewed) is very clunky. It would be better to have small thumbs (better yet simple arrows) at the top of the image so they don’t jump off the screen when you have a vertical image appear. Good luck.

BTW, I love the SimpleLABob theme. My site is under construction, but you can see it at the link above.

@Jai: that would be GREAT if you could up date the previous themes with the image.php files.

Thanks

@Andy : Thanks for the suggestions. All my next themes will be compatible with the gallery function of WordPress 2.5. I will also try and upgrade the previous themes with this function.

Just an update: Every I go online there are people talking about the new image.php page. This page is required if you want to have the gallery feature work to its potential. If you can come out with “gallery friendly” templates you’ll have a rush to your door. To design an image.php page use the single.php page you already have and compare it with the image.php in the Wordpress 2.5 default template.

Also, lots of people are complaining about the fact that images are displayed too small, or galleries point to medium size images. There are 2 ways to address this:

1. Increase the size of “medium” images to a very large number (a work-around until Wordpress fixes the issue).

2. Also it’s important to open functions.php and add the following line:

$GLOBALS['content_width'] = 600;

Set the number as high or low as you like depending on the space in your template. This will allow your “full size” images to actually display at full size.

Again, this is something you really should incorporate into your templates to save people from hunting for hours trying to find out why their images are shrunken.
