I myself am very visual oriented, and even though I am a information technology study graduate I have difficulties in envisioning a structure from text alone (even though I do understand and comprehend what I read).

Does anyone have, or is anybody interested in making a schematic of the UI so one can easily see where to make changes to effect the layout or style of gallery2? (And if someone would want to implement a modlue or do some custom changes a schematic of the entire php side of the system would be nice)

I am trying to get the title of an image to display above the thumbnail rather then below (and then strip out the "no thumbnail" message when there is no thumbnail) but I have been trying to find the best way to do this (through css or simply by placing the h2 element before the thumbnails div element.) But the first thing allready seems hard :o I cannot find the place where the h2 element for the title comes from. I did change my windows registry so that the windows search also searches .tpl files (which it didn't :-? ) but it left me with many tpl files that contain <h2 class="giTitle"> and none seems to be the correct one.

Basically I am hopeless when it comes to building up an understanding of something when I can't visualize it. I am hoping for a schematic :P

Also, could it be possible to have each module have its own readme that explains what the module is for? I didn't find one in a quick search yesterday, but I could have missed them if they are alleready there :oops:

layouts/matrix/templates/albumBody.tpl is probably the file you're looking for.

Jeez, that was hard :P

That was the file. Now why did I not see that when I had the file opened yesterday :-? Guess I was tired??

I also found UML's but think they are not really really up-to-date
