Well, not exactly *done* but it SURE WORKS GREAT! It definitely does the tedious garbage, that's for sure.
About the only glitches I noticed are easy to live with:
A: Users: be sure to go into the code and specify whatever size of thumbnail you want...for example:
If you want thumbnail #1 to be 140 pixels wide,
find where the code says <a href="[IMAGE1_URL]"><img src="[IMAGE1_URL]"> and then put "width=140" (without the quotes) just ahead of the last angle bracket. Leave a space ahead, so it looks like this: <a href="[IMAGE1_URL]"><img src="[IMAGE1_URL]" width=400>
FWIW, I get rid of the blue border and replace it with a snazzy (to an old pirate) gold one by adding: style="border: 6px outset #cccc00;" (the last quotation mark stays in) one space behind the "400".
B. If your template code has anything like a background texture, etc. that is hosted on SD, be sure to switch it to the new address at Auctiva, assuming that's where it's hosted.
C. Arrr...seems to me there was something else, too, but I can't remember for sure. I've taken too many cannon-ball hits in the head over the years. If I think of it, I'll be back.
Sail On, Auctiva! A Hearty "Well Done" To All!
