 * Hi, I am trying to build a blog and discover how to do it at once, ie I have 
   no knowledge.
    The problem is that there is no reason why sometimes (often) do
   not see the insert gallery flap and dónt find how to make it appear. I do not
   mind if I’m doing something wrong, trying to access in a way that can not or 
   if something goes wrong. I´m using version 2.7.1
 * Who can help right now thank you very much.
    greetings,
 * fum
 * PD: my english is too bad I hope you can understand me.

 * depends if there are any images loaded for particular post – if there is only
   one image – i think no gallery button appears (as there is only one image)

 * Thanks, Hotkee made me understand what was happening.
    The gallery tab appears
   only after you’ve uploaded images.
 * What I was trying, in test entry was made it with the photos already in the library,
   and is thereby not apararece Tab Gallery.
 * Anyway now the question that remains for me without trouble, just to know is:
 * If one wants to do a second entry with photos already in the library, will upload
   it again with a different name?
    It is not a common case, but as photography 
   is my blog that I could make a useful input to address one aspect of the images
   eg. technical, and another to tackle another aspect eg. expressive.
 * Which is the logical way to do that?
    There must be something better than duplicating
   files …!
 * Greetings, and thanks to those who are interested.

 * Not that I have had the problem of duplication of files – but if I did I would
   look towards using a plugin solution.
 * Try this [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/)
 * Its not a plugin I have used but might be the sort of thing you need.

 * I will try it when I can use the nextgen gallery, WP was installed on the server
   by the hosting provider, and there is a setting problem to turn on nextgen gallery,
   they are trying to solve it.
    On the other hand, I saw that it´s possible to 
   make a gallery of one picture, I liked it because I have activated lightbox and
   should be a good look to enlarger image. Thank you very much again,
 * fum.
