Getting images attached to a post

I use the code below, which works great,

function my_attachment_gallery($postid=0, $size='thumbnail', $attributes='') {

	if ($postid<1) $postid = get_the_ID();

	if ($images = get_children(array(

		'post_parent' => $postid,

		'post_type' => 'attachment',

		'order' => 'DESC',

		'numberposts' => 0,

		'post_mime_type' => 'image',)))

		foreach($images as $image) {

			$attachment=wp_get_attachment_image_src($image->ID, $size);

			?><div class="feature"><img src="<?php echo $attachment[0]; ?>" <?php echo $attributes; ?> /></div><?php

		}

}

I then add this to my post template

<?php my_attachment_gallery(0, 'medium', 'alt="' . $post->post_title . '"'); ?>

With that I can choose whether to show thumb, medium, large or full. What I need to be included here is that when the image is clicked I get the attachment image (large or full). I know gallery does this, but I need more control here in showing all images attached to the post. My goal is to design a "slideshow" within

<div class="feature"><img src="<?php echo $attachment[0]; ?>" <?php echo $attributes; ?> /></div>

the featured div

Something like this?

function my_attachment_gallery($postid=0, $size='thumbnail', $attributes='') {



	if ($postid<1) $postid = get_the_ID();



	if ($images = get_children(array(



		'post_parent' => $postid,

			$full_attachment=wp_get_attachment_image_src($image->ID, 'full');



			?><div class="feature"><a href="<?php echo $full_attachment[0]; ?>"><img src="<?php echo $attachment[0]; ?>" <?php echo $attributes; ?> /></a></div><?php

Rick Bible says:
not quite, on the post page I can control what image size to show, I use thumbs or medium, which is still functioning fine with your code
```
<?php my_attachment_gallery(0, 'medium', 'alt="' . $post->post_title . '"'); ?>
```
but I need to be able to click the image and show a larger one, using basically the same method. Your code works but the image attachment (i use a lightbox) is the same size as whatever images size I set here
```
<?php my_attachment_gallery(0, 'medium', 'alt="' . $post->post_title . '"'); ?>
```

<div class="feature"><a href="http://fabrics/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/citrus-359x270.jpg"><img src="http://fabrics/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/citrus-359x270.jpg" alt="cotton burlap" /></a></div>

This is the html output for your code... I need to control the "link to" size.

I made the link to point to the full sized image now. Please try it out.

Rick Bible says:
just about there...
```
<?php echo $full_attachment[0]; ?>
```
So, if I want to call the large attachment... I tried
```
<?php echo $large_attachment[0]; ?>
```
which does not work... resolve this and we are done...

Rick Bible says:
I see how now,
```
$full_attachment=wp_get_attachment_image_src($image->ID, 'large');
```
worked. This would be how correct? works anyway.

I declared full_attachment above as
```
$full_attachment=wp_get_attachment_image_src($image->ID, 'full');
```
If you need large_attachment also, add this after the full_attachment declaration line.
```
$large_attachment=wp_get_attachment_image_src($image->ID, 'large');
```
