I would like to setup a new content type to hold an image at the front page.
The image should go into the top middle column of a free-columns theme.

The image needs to be updated about twice a week, preferably without any text around it. The image itself contains a designed title related to other events at the time.

I thought of using an image node, and a front page view to show the most recent image at any time.

Has anybody ever implemented anything similar ?
Any idea, as to what modules to use, etc?

If the image size is dynamically adjusted, it's obviously even better.

Note this is a Drupal 6 site.

Cheers!

hi guys -
this was either too easy or too difficult... not a single response.
i am new to Drupal and can't tell. other forums i am in seem more active. might be wrong, just an observation.

anyway - all done by now. an image node type filtered to a view. leaving the content alone and disabling all view titles and eventually using the view as the front page path.

not too difficult of course. Adios !

I think, it was too easy,

I think, it was too easy, you should use drupal.org forums for further questions. Additionally, you have only been waiting for 21 hours, that's not enough. ;)

thanks !

I guess you are right. I am just used to hardware forums, where granularity is at worst microseconds.

c'est la vie :)
