I'm trying to achieve an affect in my gallery that lets people print the image. Ideally, I'd like it so that when they are on the page with the thumbnails, they click on a thumbnail and it opens the URL to the image in a new window. Can this be done?

If not, is there a way to edit the popup page so that I can put "to print image, right click and choose Print."  ?

Or if there is another way to achieve this, I'm open to suggestions.

So you want to open the image in a window by itself, so they can print? (rather then show any of the slideshows?)

When you use the popup slideshow, it does have "View Original Image", which allows y ou to look at the image in a browser window by itself. I could add this link on to the thumbnail display as a token..

That's correct, Scott. I wasn't sure if there was a token that links directly to the URL of the photo, rather than the pop up window, or the lightbox effect.

I'm using the module in this case as a coupon viewer, so I need less of the gallery features, and more for printing purposes. 

So  I was able to edit the SlideShow.ascx file to change the text "View Original Image" to "Click here for printable format". That way, if they want to print it, and they are unaware of 'right click, print image', then they can click that link and open the image itself in the brower for printing. So, doing it that way works fine for me.
