Hi Xavier,

Thank you very much for your clarification. I will certainly try that, to get the homepage up and running. However for the long run I think I will try to write a new extension.

I started playing around with the extension builder and I quite like the simplicity to create a basic extension. However I was unable to find a good tutorial on how to change which data and how it will be displayed in the front end. For example I want the data to be sorted by the id number in the backend but for the frontend the first column should be a picture that's being displayed and the second column should be the id number. The other thing that I want to be able to do is to enlarge that image to original size once you click on it. In the past I had to use a separate extension (smoothgallery) to get that functionality, is that still the case or is this part of Typo3 now?

Another thing I could not find a solution yet is when I copied the data of the mysql table from the old extension to the new extension table I was able to display all the datasets, except they all lost their link to the image. I made sure the blob value got copied to the l10n_diffsource column, but without success. What other tables do I have to alter to get the link from the dataset to the image? Where can I find some documentation on that?

Thanks again for all your help
