Hello,
I have used JustSo Photo Album for many years as I like the way it displays thumbnails which enlarge to full size when the viewer clicks on a thumbnail.
I have started using Dreamweaver CSS Pack PRO and would like a replacement for JustSo Photo Album which is aging to say the least.
I have looked through your photo products and none seem to offer an album of thumnails which enlarge to full size when the viewer clicks on a thumbnail.
Am I mistaken?

Hey Dave,
it took a bit longer than we expected but we should release it this week. We thought that it would be best to delay it and deliver a better product (quality wise) than release it quickly with bugs.
Cheers,
Ion

Having just had a quick look at the preview, I do not believe it to be a replacement for I have used JustSo Photo Album which is what my original post asked about back in November.
All I want to do is display customised sized thumbnails which enlarge to full screen size (or original picture size) in a new window, when the viewer clicks on the thumbnail, as on one of my sites as below;

Can your new software do such a simple task?
Best wishes,
Peter

@Peter:
Here's a test page that I made to show you what's possible with xpose gallery: http://extendstudio.com/product_assets/support_files/Peter/test1.html
"All I want to do is display customised sized thumbnails (*1) which enlarge to full screen size (or original picture size) in a new window, when the viewer clicks on the thumbnail (*2)"
*(1) All automatically generated thumbnails have the same size. We did this because thumbs look better if they are the same size (design consistency).
*(2) As it's built now, if you click on a thumbnail it will open the image at a predefined size (which you can change) in a lightbox. We find it much more usable this way than opening a new browser window for each image (this way you can scroll through the image set, you don't have to close it and click on another image to see it at full size and so on)
@Dave:
You're welcome! We're looking forward to your feedback!
Thanks,
Ion

I really like that sample you provided. Can arrows be added to that? I just don't think most viewers will know to click on the image to go to the next one, as I didn't.

@Dave:
You mean add prev/next buttons inside the lightbox right? If so, then yes it's possible (there's a checkbox called "Show prev/next" under the "Lightbox" tab while "Photo Gallery" component is selected).
You can also choose to show the image title, index and close button in lightbox.
Here's the updated gallery (I've added next/prev buttons for the thumbnail grid as well):
