  Hi
  I have a blog with wordpress.com and would like to install extra pages to act as a gallery for my sculptures. is this possible – even for a fee? I don’t mind paying for help with this one but am not terribly technical myself – a blog is as much as I feel confident in handling – making my own website would be beyond me.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You don’t need to pay for anything. Of course, it depends what you mean by “a gallery.” If you want to install Lightbox or something, no, you can’t do that. But you can have a gallery of sorts:

  Or just use the Gallery shortcode [gallery] and that inserts an array of thumbnails of all the pictures you’ve uploaded for that post.
