I have been looking everywhere! and I mean everywhere!

Okie, this should be simple, how do I use overlib to show the current photo in thumbnail format?

the problem is I cant figure out what the direct link to the latest thumbnail is (not dynamic of course)

I thought it would be this:

http://your-site.com/index.php?showthumb=latest&thumbtag=image

But when I put that in my URL, it goes straight to the main page with the main current photo... not the latest thumbnail...

Any help would be great!!!

PS I know OverLib pretty well so all I need is the actual thumbnail link... thats all!


cheers,
Andre'

I just did... but now all I see are ASCII characters...

I remember reading something about that, but I can't seem to find what forum it was in...

I.e. before sending it to browser you can send info to it that data will be JPEG image (because otherwise browser can't know what it is and how to interpret):
header('Content-Type: image/jpg');

Okay, now where do I put that??? Not in the main index or my image template?? or is it?
