Yes, that helps -- I was onto the webskin/ruleMyRuleName thing but I was
still using request.aInvocations in it!

A dangerous amount of knowledge.

Its a historical thing.  #3 is probably the most common modern approach to
populating the container.

#3 Use a webskin
  a) Create a folder called ./webskin/ruleMyRuleName
  b) Add an execute.cfm file; no need to think about request.aInvocations

See Image Gallery Rule for a short example:
