If you are using the image

If you are using the image module you need to set the permission 'view original images'. See http://drupal.org/node/370181

Hi, thanks for the clear

Hi,
thanks for the clear video, nice and straight forward.
I have an issue with my attempt though, if you have a moment, would appreciate your help.

In the Lightbox2 'General' settings, there is a 'Text for image original link' which does exactly what it says, however, for me, it only works when logged in, if I log out, then the link does not appear at all.

I assumed it was(is) permission related, but Lightbox2 only has two permission settings both of which I checked.

I was wondering if you could perhaps give it a test and see what happens.

thanks for any help,
Eddie
