Does the Paperpunch Theme support image galleries? I am trying to put together an image gallery of some posts however after following the instructions from support, I cannot find a Gallery button in my Media Library.. The instructions were updated Sept21/10. The Theme is new, the instructions are new. Maybe I am doing something wrong?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Open the post you want to put the gallery in. If the images have not been uploaded to that post, then upload them. Now, click on the “insert image” button above the main editor toolbars (squarish symbol). Look to the top of the window that opens and click on the gallery tab. Then arrange the images in the order you want them and configure the gallery settings and then click the “insert into post” button.

When I click on the “insert image” button above the main editor toolbar I do not have a gallary tab.

Then that would mean that no images are attached to that post. When you upload images from within the image editor, it “attaches” them to the post and thus to a gallery for that post.
If you have already uploaded the images you want in the gallery, then you will have to attach them to the post. Go to media > library and you will see a column called “attached to”. Click on the “attach” link in that column for the first image you want to use. When the little window opens, in the search field, type in the first word or two of the post title you want to attach it to. When the list comes up, select that post (checkbox at left) and then click the “select” button. Continue doing that with all the images you want in the gallery in that post. When done, open the post in the editor and follow my other instructions to insert the gallery.
From now on, the best way to do it is to upload any images you want in a post from within the post editor, that way they will automatically attach to that post and be available in the gallery.

The Gallery tab in the Image Uploader may not appear until after you hit the “Save All Changes” button following the upload.
