I've got the image module activated and can "Add an image" from the menu. I've got a few image categories created. However, when I try to add an image there is no category to select from. You can upload an image but as far as I can see that image is just in limbo associated with nothing. What am I missing here? Visiting the gallery shows me the categories with zeroe images and no ability to "upload" an image. All my directories are properly chmodded.
Also, is there a method to show a members uploaded photos in the profile page? I am using the phptemplate engine and have a decent start on overiding the profile page. It seems to me there has to be a way to display the users last 5 uploaded image thumbmails in the profile page using phptememplate.
Drupal looks great but I'm so damn confused. I've been a static html designer for years and have only a small grasp of PHP. It seems you need a fair amount of experience with php too do even the smallest customizations.
Since I am ranting, is it possible (using phptemplate engine) to display the online users by avatar on the front page outside of the block? Also, is it possible to show the last 10 or so blog posts by title only?
So many questions.. so much confusion. Like I said earlier, drupal looks fantastic but seems to tailor to those who have a great grasp of PHP already if you want to actually customize it to feet your specific needs.
