Jan,

I went into the parameters and changed up some setting messed around and I got things looking somewhat how I wanted them...here are my new settings:

heres the site now:

http://adrianoironworks.com/gallery/cat ... -work.html

also i noticed the back buttons disappeared...

you may notice in my screen shots two circles. I would like to get rid of the blank boxes at the bottom and just keep the list at the top. But, I would like the list to be in two columns.

I saw this done here:

I noticed the site is in joomla 1.6 but can I have it set up just like that? Im half way there..right?

Can you please tell me what setting(s) you changed that made images appear in the top-level category? I cannot see the forest for all trees here :x

Hi, if you don't want to display subcategories in category view, then do not set:

Display categories in category view to yes.

I am trying to do the same thing...

I would like to have a random image instead of a folder icon for subcategories. And... I would like to get rid of the category folders below the categories. It is redundant.

I have messed with the settings and I thought I adjusted the correct settings. But I just can't seem to get the results I'm looking for. The categories were created from Facebook photo imports if that matters.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! :)

Here is exactly what i mean:

Hi, you can disable it in parameters (not displaying folders and back button in category view):
