Creating a new CCK field from an imagecache preset?

I ha开发者_如何学编程ve an image gallery for which I have configured an Imagecache preset. It's my first time using Imagecache so I am not sure if I am using it right.

Right now, I see that I can only configure the CCK imagefield to show me the imagecache generated image in either the preview or the full node version of the field.

I would prefer to have a new CCK field with the imagecache generated picture. Is this possible? Is there a module for this?

If it isnt, how can I customize my gallery view to show me the preview version of the image, instead of the full node version, which it is currently showing?

Assuming you have defined an imagecache preset called preview, you can create a view display of your gallery_image node type that uses fields rather than node view and selects the field content_name_of_your_image_field and set the display of this field to preview. If you want to turn this into a gallery, you can link this field to its node, and choose the Grid view style from the menu on the left.

I am guessing that you are probably about half way through these instructions already (unless you are using a horrid image gallery module to create your image gallery).
