Gallery Setting "Type" option not appearing

    I am trying to create a slide show.

    According to this WordPress website (http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/), I should see the option when creating a gallery, a pull down menu under “Type” to define how a gallery should appear. However, when creating a gallery in my own post, I do not see this option. I only have the options under GALLERY SETTINGS for Link to, Columns, and Random order, but no Type.

    I have logged out, closed the browser, relaunched, all of that…no help there. I am using WordPress 3.5.1 on an iMac. I created a new post and titled it and saved it and tried to do a gallery there as well. No luck. Same problem.

    This blog is not public yet. I am working on it locally for now before publishing.

    This should not be an option for certain themes, correct? But a universal option for ALL galleries?

    How do I fix this problem?
