# $galleries->previewname Issue

 * With the pre 2.0 version of NextGen I was using an album shortcode to list galleries
   and then having the thumbnail for a gallery reveal a fullsize version of the 
   preview picture when clicked using javascript.
 * My issue is the $galleries object now seems to carry some incorrect/different
   information than what it used to, namely $previewname used to carry the name 
   of the preview image but now it just seems to mirror the gallery title. Am I 
   missing something or is there an issue there?
 * Within a foreach loop I was constructing my thumbnail links as below and using
   the data-largesrc attribute to carry the link to the fullsize preview image as
   shown below.
 * `data-largesrc="<?php echo $siteurl.'/'.$gallery->path.'/'.$gallery->previewname;?
   >" data-title="<?php echo $gallery->title; ?>" data-description="<?php echo $
   gallery->galdesc; ?>`
 * $gallery-previewname would give me the name of the preview image like image1.
   jpg now it just gives you the name of the gallery it seems. I’ve tried creating
   a new gallery with the same results but most of my galleries have been brought
   over from pre 2.0. There is now no way that I can see to get a hold of the preview
   image name.
