i am building a gallery for my gaming site (clan site). we would like for it to look something like ffxiplayers.com where you can vote and comment on pics of fight won and embarrasing moments.

so what i need it the ranking for the photo to show under the thumbnail. i cant find a theme that does that.

if anyone can point me in the right direction i would appreicate it. i think i have looked at all the ones on http://pictures.thelineberrys.com/gallery2/v/Themes/Matrix/

thank!

You can customize it to your liking a bit. Or write your own.

did you actually turn on ratings for any album after you activated the module?

I see the ratings here:
http://gallery.simplyjoomla.com/main.php?g2_itemId=26
You can reorder the item(s) with the theme settings. Move it up to the top.

Site admin > themes > the theme you are using > Blocks to show on album pages > move the ratings up to the top.

use a theme other than siriux to see rating for each thumbnail in an album.

sure.. siriux doesn't show anything next to item thumbnails; you'd have to modify it to display item-summary data.

learn about themes, learn how matrix theme shows item summary info, make changes in siriux to do the same..
