   I did a search but couldn't find a topic on this. I want a gallery like this one:

   http://kellybrannon.com/category/work/plains/

   where thumbnails get enlarged without a popup window. AFAIK the above site is using WPfolio and "jQuery Lightbox For Native Galleries." I am using these as well, but when I set my gallery up, after clicking on a thumbnail I get a lightbox popup window...instead I'd like it to operate like the link above.

   (eta: I know how to link to file, but that leads to the URL of the image itself alone; I want to see the full size image with my other WP elements (menu, header, etc).)

   Any suggestions would be appreciated.

   Have you tried simply creating (or amending) an image.php template file in your theme?

   No...I know how to create and edit that file, but what code should be added/changed?

   Try using the full-size parameter in wp_get_attachment_image().

   I mistakenly thought that image.php would be an existing file in my theme that I could edit. I searched the codex for "image.php" and got some results, but not a basic explanation. I know how to create a file in WP directory called "image.php," but I don't know what code should be there than what you suggested above.

   Thanks for the responses by the way.

   Have a look at http://wordpress.pastebin.com/nc7Jduz5

   Code grabbed from the image.php file in one of my templates. Hopefully that will get you started.

   OK, I installed the Nextgen gallery plugin, and in the settings for that--Options: gallery I checked Imagebrowser (The gallery will open the ImageBrowser instead the effect. )

   This accomplished what I was looking for.

   Thanks Esmi.

   jimtron, what version of wpfolio are you using? The latest version includes an attachment.php file that should do what you want.

   To install the latest versions watch the first video on this page:

    Thanks for the response. Right now I'm using the child theme 0.1, with Nextgen gallery and in the Nextgen options, Imagebrowser is checked.

    I just tried switching to 1.6.56, and disabled the Nextgen gallery plugin, and the thumbnails to lead to the full size version of the image the way I want them to--without a popup, and without going directly the image's url. But I'd love to be able to go from one full size image to the next, without going back to the thumbnail page...what would you recommend for that?

    I just tried Smoothgallery, but it's not what I'm looking for...I don't want any effects of anything, just a page of thumbnails (via WP basic gallery), and then when you click on one image, you'll see it full size (so far that's working), but then I want to go the next image full size.

    if you're talking about browsing through the attachment pages, you'd have to code in some navigation. If you do that, we'll gladly include your code in a future release.

    If you don't know how, you could hire someone on wpquestions.com - it's probably cheaper than you'd think.

    Thanks for the reply, I'll check out wpquestions.com and if I come up with something good I'll send the code your way.
