If you’re using the Mid-Century theme you may find that you don’t want every one of your image assets to appear in the photo gallery widget. It’s easy to limit the images that appear there using tags.
First, go to Manage Assets and select the images you want to appear in the photo gallery widget. Choose “Add tags…” from the “More actions…” menu and tag those images “gallery.” Next, edit the “Gallery.” template module
Around line 6 you'll see:
<mt:Assets type="image">
Change it to:
<mt:Assets type="image" tag="gallery">
Then you need to change it again around line 23:
<mt:Assets lastn="10" type="image">
Change it to:
<mt:Assets lastn="10" type="image" tag="gallery">
Now only images that are tagged "gallery" will appear in the photo gallery widget. Republish your site and you're good-to-go.

Congrats for this really cool template! It works really well for me, except that I don't have the "Share This" and the "Related Entries" on the entry pages. I can't find anything related to that in my templates either. Can you help me?
Thanks a lot!
Dear Jim,
I'm a newser of MT4. I installed your Mid Century template, but I don't understand what I have to do to show the gallery. I can't find widgets in the design menu. Maybe have I to create a new widget set?
Thank You
Filippo
Hi Filippo. If you add image assets to your blog, the gallery module should show up automatically. Go to Create > Upload File, upload an image and republish.
Hi Jim,
I added the images assets and then republished the blog, but the gallery module don't show up. Can I try anything else? I'm working on the customization of this blog: www.dasromaelazio.com/das
I made some changes in the top navigation of banner header. Maybe these changes are the reason why the gallery doesn't show up. Actually I can't find a solution.

I'm sorry, I know why. You probably don't have ImageMagick installed on your web server. You can check that in System Overview > Tools > System Information in MT.
Hai.. This is my problem too. I have ImageMagick installed on my system, but it doesn't work. I then debug it using vc2005 and found javascript error on function dialogShow line: $("#dialog-content").append(dialogImage);
please advice..
