  Hello!
  I have created a custom menu on the base of my categories. My theme is Twelve Ten. You can see it here:
  http://randomizer144.wordpress.com/

  My posts are mainly photos.
  When I choose any menu item, I can see only text, description of the photo but not a photo itself. Just like here:
  http://randomizer144.wordpress.com/category/street-scenes/age-is-no-disqualification/
  Actually I want to see a photo not just text. What shall I do (and is it possible to do anything) to see a photo?
  Regards, Alex

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Each menu item contains a numer of photos, how can I add, say, 5 addresses to the menu?

  The question is: if a categories based custom menu can show not TEXT category archive but photos of that category or not? If not, than this custom menu is a defective option.

  My photos are posted as links from Smugmug.
  Exmple: In a category Female Portrait I have now 16 photos. How I can make above mentioned menu to show photos not text.

  Does the custom menu of Twenty Ten theme supports infinite scroll?

  Now I know that this is a drawback of Twenty Ten theme. it is a pity, the theme is good otherwise. Still it has another drawback! I put it in due place.

  Custom menus have nothing to do with what you’re looking for. A custom menu allows you to replace the default top menu (= links to published static pages) with a different set of links (to whatever you like). What shows up on a category page is theme dependent: some themes display full posts (images and everything), some themes display excerpts only. You need a different theme.
