Image Not Showing for Album Set

I have created an album set titled Baseball with several albums underneath it.  No picture shows for the Album Set.

http://norcrosspics.com/galleries/archives/

How do I make pictures show here like it does for the albums?  Is there a setting?  Do I have to add pictures in the Baseball folder? 

Thanks.

Hi Bob, you'll need to edit the album and set a cover image.

Re: Image Not Showing for Album Set

And if I recall correctly that was done in Lightroom.  Is there any way to set several images with the program randomly selecting images like I did in CE3?

Yes, that's done in Lightroom.  Album Sets within Album Sets need to have cover images set in order for the child album set to have a cover image within the parent album set.  I don't believe this is different from the CE3 behaviour. 

Random thumbnails work for albums within album sets.

Re: Image Not Showing for Album Set

If you want random thumbnails to show for an album set (your Baseball set, for example), then in Lightroom's Library module, pick several representative images and export thumbnails of the appropriate size. Then upload these to the the album set's thumbnails/ folder.
Edit the album set and choose Random for Cover Image.
