Project page with gallery / lightbox showcase



Hi all,

I am relatively new, coming from typolight (now contao) as my previous CMS. So the whole Drupal concept is a bit overwhelming at first, but I am slowly getting the hang of it. The most important reason to swap over to Drupal is the big community. I think all (or most) problems are already addressed.

So here's mine:

I need a project. A project is a picture (which should link to a lightbox-like slideshow of all project picures) with some basic text.

So I created a content type project containing the basic fields (one picture field). With views I managed a page with paging, showing the most recent project as te first. So far so good.

But how do I manage multiple project pictures in a slideshow, linked to the picture in de table-view? The reason I ask is because I don't want to make a mistake here...

Should I update the imagefield to hold multiple values? Or should I create a gallery (how) and link it to the picture or so?

Am I clear enough what I want? I am a newby, so bear with me a bit. One day I am capable to help others here ;-)
