 | My Gallery Scripting |  |

is found in the top header of every RR page.
There are three basic steps to script your gallery:
- Click the
EDIT SCRIPT link located at the top left
of your gallery, which will open a script text box at the bottom of your gallery
=OR=
Click the EDIT SCRIPT
link (top right) in your script's title bar, which will open a separate window
with a script text box.
- Enter your scripting (HTML or rrScript Tags) in this text box.
- Click Save Script and do a Crtl-R or F5 "View Refresh" on the script window
to see the results.

If you would like to add an additional page to your gallery, you will need to
create a new script. You can do this by clicking
DISPLAY ALL at the top of
your gallery. At the bottom of the screen there will be a empty text box titled
New Script Name. Enter a script name and click
Submit New Script.
Keeping the "Add link to Welcome script" box checked will automatically place
a link to your new script in your gallery's opening script.
Here is an example of a RunRyder member who uses several scripts:
flytech. Click
DISPLAY ALL
to see the multiple scripts flytech has created and used to design his gallery.
Click the
View Script link at the top of
any member's gallery for more scripting examples.

toolbar at the bottom of your

 | Deleting Photos, Files or Scripts |  |
To delete photos, files or scripts from

found at the top left of your gallery. Next, check the selection box above
each photo (or script or files) you wish to delete.
Then click the

 | Add Titles to My Gallery |  |
Titles are a helpful way to divide up and explain photos in your gallery.
To add a title, you must click
EDIT SCRIPT
in your gallery. Find the place in your script where you would like to add a
title. Type in [title] and next to this whatever you wish the title to be.
After you are done, click the
"Save Script" button at the bottom on your
text box to have your title displayed.
For Example: [title] My Pico Z
This would produce a grey title bar with "My Pico Z", centered and in white font.
 | Add Text or Captions above My Gallery Photos |  |
Click
EDIT SCRIPT in
your gallery. Then scroll down the page to the script text box. Locate the
image you wish to add a caption to. Add at the end of the image file name
type: "[desc]". After [desc], enter the caption you wish to use. When you are
done click the
“Save Welcome Script” button.
For Example: [img] /helicopter/gallery/9523/DSC_0470.jpg [desc] My pride and joy
This would add a caption on top of the picture saying "My pride and joy"
 | My Gallery Thumbnail Photo |  |
RunRyder displays thumbnail photos from selected member galleries in
the top left portion of all RunRyder Pages. These photos display at
a random starting point each time you visit the site.
Photos displayed in this area are handpicked by RunRyder moderators from the Main Galleries.
Additional photos may also be selected to represent "The Best of" photos in RunRyder's
Electric, Scale and Turbine Galleries. If you would like to change the picture that represents
your gallery,
pmRR with the request.
Be sure to upload colorful, attractive, RC heli photos via My Gallery
if you would like to your image selected for rotation in this area.
 | View All Member Galleries |  |
In
GALLERIES, click
the
Total 5230 link
to view all. This will produce a Galleries Grid in which you can click on
individual member names to view their gallery.
Another way to review all Main Galleries is to continue clicking the
top right photo thumbnail. The photo thumbnails are displayed in order with
a random starting point for each new visit to RunRyder. Every time you view a
new page or do a screen refresh a new photo (a link to a member’s gallery) is
displayed. Therefore each time you click on the photo thumbnail a new gallery
will be displayed.

 | Fix Broken My Gallery Scripts |  |
- Click on EDIT SCRIPT
link (top right) to open a separate script editing window.
- Edit in a [break] tag at varying points in your script to narrow down problem.
|
[break]
|
This tag stops displaying script below the point where it is inserted.
It is used to debug broken scripts caused by malformed html.
|
- Click Save Script and do a Crtl-R or F5 "View Refresh" on the broken script window.
 | Resize Popup Gallery Windows |  |
RunRyder defaults all galleries to popup in a non resizable format. If the
default non resizable gallery does not fit your screen correctly then go to
myHOME
Edit Options.
Within Edit Options, you can manually adjust the screen height by changing the
Adjust Gallery or Photo Popup Window Bottom Position. Select a plus or
minus value to move the bottom of the popup window up or down. To test your changes, click
Submit Modifications, then click
GALLERIES
and click on a member’s gallery for a popup window.
 | My Gallery Display and Usage Problems |  |
If you encounter errors with gallery scripting or photo uploading it is likely a
cache problem. First, try a "View Refresh" by pressing Crtl-R or F5. If the error still
persists, try deleting your temporary internet files (cache) and off line content:
