Re-asking my recent question about Cutting Sooner to the large images

I asked this question the other day on this forum and my question has disappeared, and so I'm asking again:

Is it possible (and am I missing something?) to cut out some of the middle steps of the navigational hierarchy to make these sites less like archives and more like portfolios, eg. from a text link in main nav menu or from the first thumb in an album straight to the first presentation image, by-passing the array of thumbs in the gallery (and in an ideal world proving the option for clients to then go to the thumb gallery if they wished? My concern is trying to get busy would-be clients sooner to the big images without obliging them to wade through multiple layers of thumbs. Is this at all possible with the current versions CE3/4? (I'm still CE3) If not, is this something that could be programmed into a next generation?

Re: Re-asking my recent question about Cutting Sooner to the large images

you can configure Highslide gallery to auto start the slide show upon page load, if that's what you're after. Users can then stop the slide show and go to the thumbnail grid. This is possible in both CE3 and CE4

Re: Re-asking my recent question about Cutting Sooner to the large images

Thank you Rod for your quick reply.

I'll have a look at that again and see if it approximates what I'm looking for.

Much appreciated.
