My b2evolution Version: Not Entered
hello hello.
My website has a photoblog page I'm using for comics, and the archive widget looks like crap. While searching the forums for help, I came across someone's photoblog that was a bunch of neatly organized thumbnails. how does one go about doing that?
Current page (w/ archive widget): http://www.smarmymen.com/index.php?blog=10
Any other photoblog-tips would be apppreciated. Thanks!

To take advantage of the photoblog features you will need to use the "Make posts" button after uploading your images through the file manager. In other words, writing a post and putting an image in it does NOT trigger all the cool stuff that photoblog uses. For example the comic image you have there is not resized for the thumbnails in the archive or when displayed on your main page. Using the "Make posts" feature will correct that issue assuming your skin is properly set up to do it.
BTW when you play with "Make posts" you will see that it will immediately publish the image as a post. When that gets annoying you'll probably want to take advantage of http://wonderwinds.com/hackblog.php/2008/05/11/seven-hacks-for-v242#hack6
