Hi, I\'m just curious if the usage of \"singleImage\" has changed from version 1.1.5 to 1.2.6?
I used to be able to use:
...to use a single thumbnail which shows a full gallery when clicked on.
Now that I\'ve upgraded to 1.2.6, I have to use:
...to get the same effect. I don\'t really mind, I just want to be sure I\'m using the most efficient method to accomplish what I want to be done. The goal of updating was to see what performance advantages for \"singeImage\" were introduced in 1.1.8, but it doesn\'t seem to be working the same way anymore.
The original 1.1.5 can be seen in action at: http://www.alexanderfurnitureagencies.com/projects/intrawest
The new update 1.2.6 can be seen in action here:
<removed> (in this last link, the \"old code\" is represented by the bottom row of photos where you can see there is a 404 error generated when clicking on the thumbnail).
From what I can tell, I can get singleImage to work, if it shares the same directory as the the rest of the photos:
The problem that occurs with this is that the first image displayed when the lightbox appears is the thumbnail itself, which doesn\'t look very good.
Before I move this over to the live site, I thought I would see what the opinion is on the board here in regards to what is faster to execute...using the old singleImage and older version of Art Sexy or going with the new method I\'m using due to not being able to get the singleImage method to work anymore.

{artsexylightbox singleImage=\"images/gallery/thumbs/evolution_thumb.jpg\"
path=\"images/gallery/evolution\"}{/artsexylightbox}...to use a single thumbnail which shows a full gallery when clicked on.
Now that I\'ve upgraded to 1.2.6, I have to use:
{artsexylightbox thumbnailPath=\"images/gallery/evolution/square_thumbs\"
autoGenerateThumbs=\"false\" thumbnailPreviewCount=\"1\" path=\"images/gallery/evolution\"}{/artsexylightbox}
...to get the same effect. I don\'t really mind, I just want to be sure I\'m using the most efficient method to accomplish what I want to be done.
