If you've followed the docs and put your images in
{properties:content.xdocs}/images/gallery/ then you should be able to
navigate to /gallery/index.html and see them. Maybe you could explain
exactly how far you are getting and report any errors you've
encountered?

I am so sorry about my dumb questions.Should I create this index.html or plugin will do it for me?
I created it by myself and actually i don't know which codes I should write in it?Is there any example
.xml file (for gallery) that I can see what should I have and then I can change it for my site?

<It's generated - just point your browser at it.
<--tim
Tim as you said it is generated! now I have two different photo galleries
that have its own album.xml file and photos. But I couldn't see my photos.
I wrote the code in album.xml like this :

<a href="./ge/index.html"><img src="ge/a.thumb.jpg"></a>

but still any photo appears on the site, what is more my
album's name disappears!
how this code should be?any help?

Please go back to the plugin page[1] and carefully follow all the
instructions. The album.xml file should look like this[2].

Hi again...
There is something strange in my site..(may be this issue is discussed before
I did not search for it.)Any kind of photo I put to my site (logo etc.) does not
appear on Mozilla Firefox but in internet explorer!I don't know what is wrong here...

On the other hand,I can say that photo gallery is working but I can see the images
when I click on "view the largest picture".It is written in the document that
"The thumbnail and small sized images will be automatically generated" but in my site
I couldn't see the thumbnails and small sized images.
thanks for your responses! have a nice day...

Are you using *nix platform? If so, you might have to open up write
permissions on those directories. Can you look into your logs and see
if there's any useful information?

Can you copy your site to a simple path (e.g. C:\temp) and try to
build from there? I'm wondering if the spaces in the directory path
aren't the issue.

Lets be sure. Can you see the beach picture?

So something has changed. That means that the error that you
reported earlier is gone, which indicates that the use of spaces
in the directory name might be causing problems.

However, it seems that you have something else wrong
with your use of the PhotoGallery plugin. I think that
you need to take a step back and explain exactly where
you have placed your images and what is in your album.xml
file for one of the galleries. I suggest that you create
an issue [1] and attach your index.xml file, and an album.xml
file, and a listing of your xdocs/images/gallery/*/ directory.

The PhotoGallery works fine for me.

What version of Forrest are you using?

Also, have a look at these issues and see if any apply to you:
