What's the best way to add a page?

Hi Guys!
I would like to add a page to my site to put photos of my customers projects. This page would only be jpg's and captions. Could anyone please tell me what the best way to do this? I tried making an EZ page but it doesn't show on my site. I have Zen Cart 1.5 with the Cherry Zen template. I would also like to have a link to this page in my left hand side box. Any ideas?
Thanks

Did you give the EZpage a sort order greater than 0?

If you want to add it to the Information Side Box, take a look at https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=242

An ez-page will work if you create it correctly. What exactly did you do to make it?
Did you set the ez-page to show in the sidebox, with a non-zero sort order?
Do you have the "Important Links" sidebox turned on in Tools > Layout Boxes Controller?
Do you have Configuration > EZ-Page Settings > EZ-Pages Display Status - Sidebox set to 1?

Have you switched on the sidebox itself in layout boxes controller?

Re: What's the best way to add a page?

Thanks everyone for responding to me. I have the ez page done and it shows in the proper side box now. I would like to make the page so that I can have 3 columns of photos. Anyone have any ideas how I would do that? I'll be working on it to figure it out.
Thanks again!

Divide the HTML content of the page into three divs with class="back", and they will float left. If you need them to be even thirds of the page width, give them a class like "ezpCols" and add to your stylesheet```
.ezpCols {float: left; width: 33%;}

Re: What's the best way to add a page?

thank you for responding. I'm not finding the style sheet. The only one I found just has fonts and colors. I did find the ezpages.php is that where I change it?
