If you want to add a specific picture you could use the html nugget plugin and just put an <img src=> tag in...

If you want to use a random image you might look at http://www.risingdawn.org/plugins/seren ... ermine.zip

From the s9y.org plugins webpage:

Coppermine Thumbnails Plugin [released on 2004-10-17] Display some random / recent / popular thumbnails from a Coppermine Photo Gallery in the sidebar.
By Matthew Maude

I don't use coppermine, so I have never used that plugin.

A plugin like that is also in Spartacus/Additional Plugins. Something like serendipity_plugin_gallery_coppermine_random or sth like that

Would there be a way to have the coppermine plugin show up in the header of s9y with the pictures vertical instead of horizontal?!

(just under the title)

I think that plugin just uses Coppermine output, so you'd have to configure that tool for vertical output.

Thanks to the plugin hooks of Serendipity you can execute any plugin anywhere in your Smarty template. For that please just look up our Smarty/Template documentation on www.s9y.org. The basic idea is to add some "{serendpity_showPlugin ...}" code into your index.tpl template, and set the gallery plugin in the plugin manager to "hidden" so that it doesn'T show up in the sidebar any more.
