Art Exhibits

I'm working on the Art Exhibits page right now. The slideshow/images are a bit complicated, so here is the documentation:


  1. Open the ArtExhibitTemplate.psd in Photoshop

  2. Open the artwork you would like to highlight in Photoshop

  3. Resize the image to width 500px

  4. Copy the image and paste it onto the Template and line it up. Replace the text.

  5. Save both images to your desktop. The original (500px) image gets the naming convention "0310ImageName.jpg" where 0310 is month/year. The slideshow image gets the naming convention "0310ArtExhibit1.jpg" where "1" is the slide number.

  6. Create the Image Node, using a previous Image Node as an example. You can find one by listing content by Image Type.

  7. Change the necessary text and use the node Title for the Alt and Title text for the image.

  8. Create the Slideshow Node, using a previous art exhibit slide as an example. You can find one by listing content by Slideshow Type.

  9. Change the necessary text and use the node Title for the Alt and Title text for the image.

  10. Uncheck the "open in a new window" option

  11. Link the slide to its corresponding Image node.



I think that's it...
