Using Thickbox with Image Galleries
Thickbox allows you to show full-size images without leaving the gallery page, and also adds 'previous' and 'next' links.
Note: There is still a little bug with Thickbox so be careful to not choose to small images, the preview won't be created and your gallery won't work properly. I don't know exactly the minimum size but you will realize coz it won't charge the image in the Thickbox preview. So just make the image a little bit bigger or just choose a better one.
(Comment: Isn't the problem that the full size image is *smaller* than image module's 'preview' size, and that thus thickbox is looking for an image file with a 'preview' suffix which doesn't exist?)
Note: as long as you click on the image everything will be ok and Thickbox will do it's work but if you click on the image name (label) it won't use Thickbox. I believe that at this point I have to theme a bit the gallery ... with view I guess to get rid of the label. I hope I will succeed and continue this tutorial.
