I might be daft but I cant figure out how to do this.
I just want one big picture center on the front page.
Is this possible? How do I turn off the auto-thumbnail thing for 1 pic?

I would also be interested in this.
I hope I didn't get your hopes up by replying, Problem child :)
For the thumbnail thing, did you try enter a value of zero in the box?. I'm new to this, its just a guess.

Why don't you just add a new front page to your gallery.

Is this the same question as "how can I bypass the thumbnails page and go directly to a Photo page when I open an album?"

Or a different question?

Problemchild, you could try this:

Copy your current theme to a new folder in /themes directory
Rename it in theme.inc. You will need to rename the corresponding function and change $this->setID and $this->setName values. Use any name you wish.
Install your new theme in site admnin -> plugins and assign it to your top album only.
Now you can play with album.tpl in your new theme's templates folder. Locate the code which outputs the thumbnail table and replace it with anything - an image or swf etc...

Hope this would help
