Post installation

What is the standard width for an image in a right or left block so that the image does not expand the width?

Since nobody responded to my previous post asking for tips for organizing a larger site, I was wondering if anyone has released an example Drupal site. Y'know, like a tarball of a configured Drupal installation with filler content and a few modules or other customization, to help new users understand good practices of building the foundations of a larger site. Most everything I've learned about programming has come looking at other's work and understanding how it fits together. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I 've installed logintoboggan and curious about the fifth feature:

5. The module provides two login block options: One uses DHTML to display the form immediately upon clicking "log in". The other brings the user to a separate page, but returns the user to their original page upon login completion.

How do I get access to the DHTML block or separate page. Do I need other special php snippet?

Any advice is welcome, Thank you.

latestgreatest.module displays a block containing a number of entries from any news aggregator category. Users with voting permissions can flag any of these items as worthy of attention, and if enough users vote for an item in this fashion, the item will NOT scroll off the list when newer entries arrive.

Hello,
The above instructions are a little confusing for non experts.

Please see http://paratlane.net

Does anyone know if there is a way to make it so that "add new comment" and "login or register to comment" links do not display at all with teasers? This seems like something I should be able to figure out or find the answer to myself, but so far I haven't come up with it. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

I am about to rebuild one of my Drupal sites from the ground up to make use of some of the great new modules such as those contained in the CCK. However, I don't want to move ahead with the rebuild until I'm absolutely positive that I'm doing things in the most efficient way.

The site is a database of monologues for actors and up until now when adding a monologue the user had to enter the Play Title, Author, and a Brief Synopsis of the play. Additionally, they were asked to include a brief biography of the character that was being portrayed in that monologue. However, I feel that much of that could be automated by creating a node type for Plays that includes the Title, Author, and Synopsis. Furthermore, it could possibly include the character biographies however I am unsure how useful that would be.

What I would like to see happen is that the user is given a list of plays that are currently in the system. If the play their monologue is from is in the system they simply select and it and do not have to fill out the Title, Author, or Synopsis. However, if the play is not in the system they will then enter the information manually.

Are there any modules that could make this possible? The new node referencing in the CCK is a step towards this sort of thing but it doesn't offer the ability for other fields to be affected by a node reference. Or if it does I have yet to notice.
