vogue - that is a very nice thing to say but I am nothing more than a

script cobbler.

In layman's terms; I'm trying to write a script in the PHP coding language to expedite the recurring task of producing image galleries for my online store. I estimate that I will need about 3 dozen image galleries at the outset which originally took 2-3 hours each to produce. Now I can produce them in 3-4 minutes each but the process is a bit arduous and not quite ready to be incorporated into my commercial product.

Halfelven - Re: I use drupal

I looked long and hard at a number of Content Management Systems including Drupal, Joomla and SimpleCMS but it became a case of integrating osCommerce into them instead of the other way around. Another aspect of my long term goal is to produce a lightweight file/image management system that I can add to my commercial osCommerce template as an upgrade.

I stopped into your website . . . nice.

vickip - only smart enough to be dangerous
The first step in modifying your blog template is to determine if you in fact can. Based on when you signed up, it is likely that you are on the old format which I can help with. You have a number of blogs so I am assuming that you are not on a basic plan, which means you should be able to easily modify your blog template.

wow, you must be like really smart!
I've been reading your blog instructions on changing my blog look/template -- still trying to figure it out.  I think it has to do with when I signed up ... thank you for all the information you provide!
