  i’m using the Monotone theme for my blog posts and i am having trouble adding more than one photo to my posts. i’ve seen another blog with the same theme as mine with multiple images in one post. i’ve added my images to my post…they all appear in it “BEFORE” it’s published. as soon as i publish it, only the first photo appears and not the rest. here is the link to the blogger that i am referring to.

  This is your blog: http://chasotone.wordpress.com/ ?
  Here is some info about the Monotone theme:

  “3. It is often claimed that you cannot have more than one photos in a post. That’s only true when you upload and insert independent images: you can very well have more than one images in a post if you upload and insert them as a gallery. You can even have an independent image and a gallery: [*]”

  and so, info about galleries:

  However, the example you linked to is not a gallery, it’s one image:

  I couldn’t figure it out.
  It seems as if the image links to two different posts?
  On the left, it links to: http://strazz.wordpress.com/2009/09/15/sophie-and-the-bee/
  On the right, it links to:http://strazz.wordpress.com/2009/09/13/early-hibernation/
  What am I not noticing?

  The post does that, not the image: linking to next/previous post, Monotone way.

  I just experimented with the theme (again) and I never noticed that before. Odd theme.

  It’s VERY odd, but it’s good for some things. It just doesn’t really work when you want to use it to, you know, blog.
