Forward/Back buttons?

I was checking to make certain I had the cels in the proper chronological order in one of my gallery sections today when I realized that having to go back to the sub-section to click on the thumbnail of the next cel was a bit cumbersome.

I know that not all galleries would need or want such a feature, but (hoping Jason doesn't explode from considering adding YET ANOTHER item to his to-do list) but...

Would it be possible to be able to put a back/forward button feature on the individual cel pages in a gallery? Uhm... (fearing she's not being clear enough)

Here's a section: http://thingswithwings.rubberslug.com/gallery/master_query.asp?SeriesID=11119

I've
set the cels in the chronological order they would have appeared in the episodes. If a person were to click on the "Kero's Sun" thumbnail to go to that individual cel page, and then could click on a forward button at the bottom of that page to advance to the next cel in the sequence "Yue's Moon", someone could browse the section with fewer trips back to the root "CCS - Final Judgement" page just to get to the next page in the sequence.

Just a random, wishful little thought.

(Oh, my prevailing theory as to the radical change of my gallery is that I must have been waylaid and beaten up by a faerie wielding a 'cute' wand. By summer I expect I will be sick of 'cute' and go back to a more celestial or dark or angsty theme. Maybe all three at once. Or maybe a theme with sun-resistant vampires or flea-ridden (from sharing ships with ailing werewolves) time-travelling zombie pirates.)

Maybe the ninjas can help Jason with his "to do list".

Actually not difficult at all, survey says, "High value to many people *and* low difficulty"... meaning, this will probably be a quickie at the top of the pile.

I need to set aside a day to work on this site. I have this big pile of features I just got reminded about by e-mail that I keep promising to work on and I haven't done.

I still want forum stickies, if only to keep my own thoughts in order. i.e. a "feature" wishlist forum thread so that everyone can post what they want to see happen/fixed next on this site. This is more or less a democracy and I try to do whatever there's a demand for, especially if it's something easy.

Individual cels now have back and forward buttons to go to the previous or next item in any particular series.

Also, there was a missing right margin in the cel layout that has the info to the right of the cel. I put that back in, so now cel information doesn't run up all the way to the edge of the page. Keep forgetting to do that until now...

Jason! *bounces up and down in her chair with excitement*

The forward/back feature is wonderful! Even better than I had hoped, since you use the name of the next cel in the sequence as the link!

m^_^m

Thank you so much!
