Most themes have that already.
See the "Full Size" icon above and below the image in my example using the carbon theme.

Thanks, I see the feature in the Carbon theme. Unfortunately, its not in the Matrix theme. Rather than tweak the Carbon theme to change the colors etc. I think I'll try out some of the other themes to see if they have the feature. Thanks for the info!

On second thought, it will be easier to change the colors in the Carbon theme.

After more thought I think its better to wait for the Drupal integration of Gallery 3. I like the behavior better where the full size image fits the browser window. BTW, nice photo of Curacao! Now I want to visit.

It may be quite a wait for G3.1
I have some great integration tools for G2.

That's incredible! It looks identical to the Gallery2 embedded in my Drupal site. Sounds like its a lot easier to install too! Looking forward to trying it out!

I feel like a total newbie. I filled in all the info and generated the gallery2Embedded.php and saved into the gallery2 root, which is a sub domain to my Drupal located at http://localhost/drupal-6.11/gallery2/
I really don't need any content above or below the embedded gallery. Next I made a menu link in Drupal to the gallery2Embedded.php and it opened g2 not embedded. Obviously, I'm doing something wrong. Can u tell me? I've attached my generated page if it helps.

since you have not added anything to the page(except for the copyright) its going to give you gallery.
The idea is to be able to wrap gallery into any webpage like the samples shown on mysite.
Take this one for example. I've attached the file, notice all that went into it.

Whew! That's a lot of work. I'll need some more time to work onto it. In the meantime wondering if I can put Carbon behavior into Matrix. Using Firebug I found the code for the full size image opening in separate popup browser window in Carbon theme. Its found in the navigator.tpl line 75 as follows;
<td class="gsActionIcon">
<div class="buttonPopup"><a href="{$smarty.capture.url}" target="_blank"
onclick="popImage(this.href, '{$theme.item.title|escape:"quotes"}'); return false;"
title="{g->text text="Full Size"}"></a></div>
</td>
How to put into the Matrix theme? Do u know?

you'll need to get the popImage function from the carbon javascript and the buttonPopup class from the carbon css as well.

Thanks. Will give it a try. In the meantime, do u know why there's no G3 integration for Drupal? especially given the fact this is a Drupal site, I think? What are your thoughts?

there is no embed API for G3 yet. Not till 3.1
Not for Drupal, not for Joomla, not for WP none... nada... still.

That's a drag. G3 looks to be a big improvement, however, prefer to embed so looking at G2. I think the matrix theme is best, however, I like the behavior of the Carbon theme showing full size in separate browser window. Have tried implementing into matrix without success, so far. These themes are not so easy to modify. Do you think its even possible or am I just wasting time?

Absolutely

I mean for a newbie? Unfortunately, I'm not a great hacker. It seems reasonable enough to me one should be able to put the Carbon theme full size image code into the Matrix theme, modify the css, copy the js file into the matrix theme and it should works, right? So far, I've tried without luck. Am I missing something?
