I would like to change the album image to match another part of the domain I have. My other part is a directory. I would like them to look like the second image. Is this possible?

I might not understand exactly what you are after, but you can add your own highlight image to the album, highlight it, then hide it.

If you are after adding subalbums to the album view then you could use the 'classic' theme and customize it.

Dave if you go here:http://americantentcity.org you will see what the "categories" look like. I would like to make my "albums" look the same. My album page is here:http://americantentcity.org/tentphoto
I just want to make the albums look like the categories. I hope this better explains it.

Take the attached image
Add it to the album
highlight that item
hide that item.

The other option is to do some css fancy work to add the "upside-down folder" look as a frame or the background on the album.

I'm kinda following you here. sorta, I do still want to have the state flag as the image though with just the image as a "frame" I was reading somewhere here about frames around images but did not see anything about a frame around an album image. Thanks for the help. I'm working on it.

I think I have it figured out, I can turn the main background "white" insted of the blue color,I can paste the flag on the image we discussed in the above post and resize it to about 150x 125 or so. That will give me the effect I'm looking for. The only thing I need to know how to do now is how to turn the text that is currently "white to black, The white text in the attached image[img]http://americantentcity.org/images/sample3.jpg[/img]

Each album can set the album frame type to the album or item.
So you can create a frame to frame the flags.

Not much time to do it for you now but could be convinced later if you get stuck

You are using a color pack, so you will have to edit it:
.giInfo { color: seashell !important; }
Change seashell to a different color/colour.
