bump.......... ummmm does gallery 2.3 cant do this or what? Is it really that hard to explain how to do this ? I don't understand, every gallery pretty much has this feature and yet its such a secret?

1. it depends on the theme you are using, some already have this effect. Do you want that effect on the image or the <div> that it is in?
it is done with CSS like:

#photolist_block a.thumbnails:hover {
	border: 1px solid #ff0000;
}

You will have to change the class of the css.

2. use a color pack. If you just change the background color of the background then you might have black text on black background.

3. Use the square thumbnail module and use the admin setting of this module to pad the sides with the color of your choosing.

@css: http://gallery.menalto.com/node/70126 the css is in the theme you are using.

@theme: up to you. personally I think the xtreme theme is a bit complex to customize.

edited the theme in dreamweaver

I think that dreamweaver adds extra stuff so I would not use it , use your backup to restore your edits.

Feel free to try a different album software if you don't think you are getting what you paid for.

what would you use to edit it? Why is their such lack in support and yet this gallery has soo many issues? Dave you the only one on the team? What other php gallerys you recommend?? I would gladly leave, it just puzzles me that everyone has those 3 options on their gallery's for the most part yet its so f879374ing secret to explain in HUMAN TEXT on step by step how to obtain such features. Why must i read noval's of post and still not find my answer>? Why can't people answer questions in a clear and normal way? Instead just what to do and what not to do suggestion yet lack in effort to say what problems or proper steps must be taken to resolve the issues. Just blows me alway on lack of support knowledge around here, wow.

yeah im sure your the only brain on the team and sadly your not a very good one. See you wanna sound like your know what your talking about yet you lack in common support aspects. Heck i even PM you my login and password and you were STILL UNABLE to setup my gallery the way i asked in the first post...What was the point of me letting you login then? LOL. So quite frankly we should let other people help out...Unfortunately you are the only one who is paid to monitor the forums but the gallery team should really reconsider and pay attention how support is handled around the forums. pathetic.

I don't get paid! I do this for free to help the project. What have YOU done to help the project?

I would like to start a flame war with you but I have better things to do, like help others that are appreciative of the free support on a wonderful free product.
