Image Block
Hi,
Im new to drupal and Im creating a content managed site that I can hand over to a customer so they can add in their own content easily and quickly. I have done well so far setting up the styles adding in some content I have, I even got my head around an updating news block that allows my customer to add news that appears on the hompage straight away.
The only problem I have encountered is that I would like to do the same for images. I would like to create a block that when my customer adds an image it will appear just like the news section. The block will present about four or five images vertically on my homepage. I have tried to find tutorials but all I can find are ones on gallerys that dont seem to work.
If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.

Have you looked at using Views2 to achieve this? It's pretty straight forward and must be plenty of guides around for that. Shout me if you get stuck. I remember being new to Drupal and pullin' my hair out :)
Views2
Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I have used views2 for the news section and it is what I have been trying to use for the images block, I have found a number of tutorials and easy walk throughs to make gallerys etc. but none of them have seemed to work at all, I get to the end stage where the block is ready I have added to my sidebar, the title is there but the logos dont seem to show up.
Field Permissions?
A common problem with Views, CCK and Image Fields is that the default permissions for the field are all off. So check the permissions for the image field in question to make sure it is visible. Send me a message if you need any help, happy to have a look and point you in the right direction if I can...
