Ok I am attemping to create a geeklog site about spyware. I wrote a book on how to use the best free programs with step by step picture installations. One of the first problems I am encountering is that you can only put up 5 images per page. Some of the instruction sets have 10 or more pictures... Is there a way that every 5 pictures with instuctions I can put a "Next Page" link and it'll pull up the next page of instructions? Also when I create the block I want to be able to put links that refer to each instruction set, upon one becoming a member and registering the links would be available to you... How do I create links within a made block that will pull up content in the middle of the page?

This one I can answer. Look for
Text Formatted Code
// Story Settings
$_CONF['maximagesperarticle']   = 5;
 

in config.php and change that to what you want, then check the config.php Docs for other available options.

You can use static pages, like this site has done. Then set the permissions so that only members can see the content. And notice the block named Local Content.
