Correct and that single picture plus some text directly underneath would link to the gallery

Is there a preference for the preview picture size?

One text link somewhere in the text above the picture and one in the text below the picture like it is currently. It's my belief that text underneath the picture is often lost so I would definately post the tour link in the top area. Plus, not everyone will use the full feed, it is therefore important, I believe, to have a tour link in the first couple of sentences.

But don't set that in stone....I think the example post would also work well if the picture (with text link to gallery) were put in a div and floated to one side of the text. Although I would still recommend the link to the tour come earlier in the text.

As far as a preview picture size, if done like chop on the lake, I would use 350px wide, if used in a div 200px. But then again, I like large pics.
