I have tried Drupal only for a few days, but I find it very useful. However, I have one big designproblem.
I'm using the page to publish a photoblog, and as I integrate photos in each blogpost, my blogpage becomes "heavy", and it takes lots of resources to load it and to scroll down.
Is there any way that I can decide how many posts should be published on each page, before it divides the content into several pages?
I have tried looking up a module, and I have searched through some of the categories in the forum, but can't find it anywhere..
Since I'm kind of new to Drupal I assume this may be an easy case for some of you advanced users? Is there a function in Drupal, or a module that fixes this?

Number of posts on main page
If you are talking about the frontpage, go to:
admin>content>configure
set Number of posts on main page to whatever value you like
It worked. Possible to customize each page?
Thank you, it worked! I can use this feature for all "main" pages, as my blog page.
The only disadvantage is that it counts for all the pages. Does anyone know if you can customize this for different pages?
I'd like to have more news posted on each page on my front page, than on my blog page. No big deal, but it would be nice to know if anyone has tried this?
module
You would have to write this kind of functionality yourself, using a pager query with a custom number of elements (personally I use 2x the default value and display them in two columns but you can use any arbitrary value).
Not sure if it is worth the trouble for you.
