Hi, there,
Your video not found, the error message showed.
I would try using the Quicktime link to download the video instead. Sometimes certain browser versions have problems with embedded flash.
Pretty clear for anybody to learn. Keep up the good work.

I followed the video instruction. Finally when i insert new image content I can upload an image, but i can not set the image category (the image gallery drop down list does not appear). What should i do?
Thx
Check to see if you have the core taxonomy module enabled. If it is not enabled then the image gallery category function won't work. You also must add the galleries as shown at the 7:20 mark in the video.
I enabled the taxonomy module. I tried to find the solution i and finally i found the mistake. Under the Admin/Content/Taxonomy i clicked the image gallery dictionary edit. I checked the Image on the content type. Now everything works fine. Thx.
I followed your video, but when I click on an image in the gallery. Thickbox seems to try to run, but it never gets pass the progress bar. Am I just not waiting long enough? My site is on localhost right now. 6.9 Drupal version.
Thanks for any help!

It could be one of a few things but it is probably related to javascript. Thickbox might be conflicting with another module. It could also be an issue with the browser if you are using an older version of Internet Explorer. The thickbox issue queue over on Drupal.org would probably be the best place to get more detailed assistance.
Yes, I checked Drupal. It seems to have something to do with setting Thickbox to load Original or Preview image. When set to Preview it doesn't seem to work, but when set to Original seems to be fine. For the Thickbox release for Drupal 5.x, there was a patch developed to fix this. So for some reason the problem seems to be back. I still found the video very helpful along with many of your others, so thank you!
Hi,
Everything perfectly fine. Exactly like the tutorial.
Problem now is that I would like to remove a Gallery and there doesn't seem to be any means to do that..... Any advice?
Thanks
Matthew
Go to /admin/content/image. Then select the "edit gallery" link for the gallery that you want to delete. Scroll to the bottom of the resulting page in the edit gallery view. Click the delete button.
I was going to say, "I must have been smoking crack not to notice that!"
I don't know why I didn't see it there but anyway thanks.
Hi, what module do you use for the video ? x)
thx
I'm not sure what you mean. I think you may mean what module adds the embedded video. If that is the case then I'm not using any special module. The video is hosted by Blip.tv and I embed their very excellent player into a field that I added with CCK. So I'm basically just copying and pasting.
Great video thanks, had the exact same problems in the thread, but was able to fix them. Thanks to you guys for posting your solutions. Awesome video!
hello,
great tutorial and great site! Was wondering if you knew how to set up an image, so that once it was clicked from the gallery and the thickbox pops up, the user is allowed to click the thickbox and navigate to the url?
thanks

Ironically enough I use Lightbox 2 on this site, which is a module that has functions that are very similar to Thickbox. Lightbox 2 has an link in the pop-up that links directly to the node. http://drupal.org/project/lightbox2
Great! Thanks a lot Dude! Just what I needed!
I followed the steps in installing a Lightbox2 in Drupal. Using the admin privileges, the lightbox2 is functioning properly but when i logged out, when i clicked an image, no lightbox seen. I already set the access controls in /admin/user/access of the lightbox2. I checked the anonymous and authenticated user to make that it'll work on both. But still, lightbox2 not functioning. What will I do? Thanks.
I'd check to see if you get the same issue in other browsers. In the past I know that Lightbox has had some javascript conflicts that I would only see in Internet Explorer. Also check the issue queue over on Drupal.org. Finally, as a last resort you can try Thickbox to see if that works for you.
Got a little problem. After installing and enabling the taxonomy module, the Image Gallery dropdown was present. I had to upgrade my Drupal installation soon after and now the dropdown has disappeared. Taxonomy is still checked, and permissions look to be in order. The update was from 6.6 to 6.9 I think. Anyone with ideas?
Check to see if you are on the latest version of the image module. Since taxonomy is a core module I'm inclined to think that the issue is with you version or the settings for the image module.
I followed this video and it was very helpful. However, when I preview, the main image does not show up above the thumbnail. Instead all I have is the title, and under that the date and time. When I try to view the galleries nothing shows up. They appear empty.
can i use a Gallery to do something simulating the dinamic theme of iGoogle??
How??
(I'm Argentina, I don't speak english very well... sorry)
Nice job. Just what I needed to get me started. Thank you for the excellent info. Well presented.
Hi, great tutorial! Everything work perfectly except for one small thing.
Please, take a look and tell me is this gallery or design mistake.

Thank you!
The image gallery is a pretty standard thing so if it is not displaying properly there is likely an issue with the template. Switch back to the default Garland template and see how it looks.
Hi Rob,
Thank you for excellent videos. I'm just starting to use Drupal, and your video tutorials help a lot. Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky this time, and got problems creating my Image Content while following your video.
I've got an error message:
"The admin will need to set the path on the image toolkit page. Unable to create scaled Thumbnail image."
Also, the Image Toolkit is asking about a path to ImageMagick convert binary, or to the file convert.exe. I have all image related modules installed and enabled, ImageMagick is in my modules list as well. I’ve searched for convert.exe file, and it doesn’t exist. I don’t know what convert binary is, and where to look for it.
I’d greatly appreciate if you can help me to fix this.
Thank you,
Tanya
If you go to 'admin/settings/image-toolkit' you can see which image toolkit is selected. If ImageMagick isn't working try the GD2 image manipulation toolkit. Your status report '/admin/reports/status' will tell you if gd2 is installed on your server. If GD2 is not available you may want to check with your hosting provider to see if they can make it available for you.
Rob, thank you very much for super prompt response. I've got my image content created by using GD2 image manipulation toolkit, but when I tried to scale the original images size down to 960x620, for some reason this didn't work. My original image looks way too large. Could you please help me fit it into my page width which is 960px.
Glad to hear that you were able to move along. If you go to '/admin/settings/image' you should be able to set the maximum size (in kilobytes) of your image uploads. If your original file is larger than those settings you will have problems. So check that. On the same page you can set up the dimensions for cropping and scaling the images that you upload.
I wasn't able to fix previously uploaded images by setting scaling to 960x620, but it worked fine with the new uploads. Thank you.
