I have this big dilemna for me (maybe small for you)

hmm, I'm a newbie in 6.x but maybe this might work:

create views>page view>display fields (pic)>display node type, taxonomy terms

install tagadelic> creates tag cloud

Not quite ... yet. Working

Not quite ... yet. Working hard on it ... on my spare time nga lang.

dev environment:

  • Apache HTTPD 2.2.9 + Openssl 0.9.8h, MySQL 5.0.51b, PHP 5.2.6
  • Drupal 6.4
  • modules involved: CCK+image, Views, Taxonomy, Imagecache ... Lightbox2 for extra testing, all dev and/or latest 6.x releases. Not installed Tagadelic since I think it's not a direct part of the solution at hand, correct me if I'm wrong.

done so far:

  1. created content type album with multivalued pic field
  2. created taxonomy vocabulary for the tags
  3. configured Imagecache for the pic thumbs (not album or taxonomy image)
  4. created page view: type=node, fields=taxonomy term, filter=node of type album
  5. test: ok got what i wanted - a list of albums according to vocab terms, doesn't mind if pics appear in more than one album

But, where do I go from here to enable or trigger (FireFox with addon) the Cooliris (formerly Piclens) 3D wall just by clicking on the special link (mediarss?) on the album itself, Not by viewing the album's pic contents and clicking on the individual pic's mediarss link? Just like in http://www.new.facebook.com/photos.php?id=564052269, click on the link icon that fades in when you hover above the album's thumbnail (facebook login required). This is what I exactly wish to arrive at.

my own musings:

  • try ko kaya create feed doon sa view instead of page? ignorant me, this was for plain RSS
  • i had not installed Image module, so was not able to enable Piclens support for Image Gallery and Taxonomy/Image, eto na kaya?

Appreciate your further thoughts.

P.S. CAPTCHA - good intentions, just too hard and restrictive; hard to read, challenges me everytime even while I edit this already posted post.
