For the code, you probably want a card. Then define your card to include the picture. Check this recipe for an example of how to display a paperclip image in a card. http://cookbook-staging.hobocentral.net/recipes/46-using-lightbox-with-hobo
For the random selection I meant selecting the model with a find or scope, you want 1 item, :limit => 1, but a random selection from the whole collection, so :offset => some_random_number_between_0_and_the_max. Once you have your item, you should be able to just add a card (after you adjust it to show the image) with that item as the context. In the controller: @image = ImageModelCount.find :first, :limit => 1, :offset => rand(ImageModelName.count) There might be a cleaner way to do the offset without requiring the extra db hit with sql. In the view: <card with="&@image" /> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hobo Users" group.
