Slick Way to show post images

Here's a tip on how to easily show post images. Works on windows, Android, and Iphones. I'm not sure if it works on Safari, just haven't got it to try it out.

Install plugin Mobile Gallery... free on WordPress plugin gallery. It works off of the native WordPress

#gallery-1 {
margin: auto;
}
#gallery-1 .gallery-item {
float: left;
margin-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
width: 33%;
}
#gallery-1 img {
border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
}
#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {
margin-left: 0;
}
/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */

pagely-full-white-trans-180x62_11

short code. So you can use it anywhere you've got image attachments.

In the Customize Content box on the Create Posts page, insert the following [ gallery link=file]

Take out the end space! In your form create a file upload field for multiple images. Formidable makes these all available as a file attachment to the post. When you open the post you'll have thumbnails of each image and if you click on one you get a slide show (in a not very pretty WordPress lightbox).

Very simple, not super pretty, but very functional. My users love it.
