Hello. Could someone explain me, please, how do I properly work with single images, with image galleries, or with slideshows? With “2011 theme” (or “any other theme”?).

Problem I encountered:
1) Uploading 10 images from my PC desktop, creating slideshow with all of them -> fine ->
2) wanting to insert gallery with 2 images (i.e. 2 images out of those 5 already used in slideshow) AT THE SAME POST ->
3) thus I erased the other 3 images from and inserted the gallery with other 2 as I wanted ->
4) however, this action of deleting 3 images DELETED these images also from my first slideshow.

I am just curious. Am i doing anything wrong?

Thanks in advance. petr

A gallery will display a set of thumbnail images attached to a particular post or page. This is the relevant support documentation for creating a Gallery. And, this is an excellent resource I always refer to when Gallery questions arise.
This is a link to support documentation regarding creating slideshows.

I incorporated into my post/page a slideshow, but there are photos at the bottom of the post that I don’t want to be there. I only want the slideshow of the photos not the images at the bottom along with the slideshow. Do I delete those images by editing them out? The address is:

Thanks so much!

Yes. In the visual editor, click on each image then click the delete icon; click Update when you’re done with all the images, Or (faster) switch the editor to HTML, select and delete everything below [slideshow], click Update.
