    hi, i'm using a template that will display image attach to a post as thumbnail in the category view. it will automatically create a gallery once an image is uploaded to the post.

    i have other posts that used same image.

    This seems to be a recurring theme here. I have the same question, and I believe it's a limitation in the WP software to allow about.

    Goes into it a bit, but I'm still looking here as well. As of 3.1, I can't see a method for doing this in the Media library however, it should exist. Perhaps a plugin is available. If I find anything, I'll let you know.
