What's the best way to create a new type of node where the author can add numerous of photos for a certain category to a single node?

For example:

I have a node type (something like story) where I describe hospitals all over the country, but below that single article I would like to have 2 groups of photos, where I can put many photos inside a single group:
1. photos of doctors in that hospital
2. photos of a hospital

Is it possible to have that feature by using flexinode/CCK and how?

C'mon, this shouldn't be so difficult... Or, am I very wrong?

I would be interested in this too using CCK.

There could be the solution for our problem: http://drupal.org/node/71054

P.S.
Drupal community is not quite helpful... such a few people wants to answer somebody's questions. :(

The last entry might work for me. I wonder if it can be themed.

Hi,

I've written a module which is still in development, but it works like this.
First you upload images to an image gallery.
Then you create an image_article (that's the name of my module).
Here you can select among the image galleries on your site and select
which size you want for your images (as defined per image.module).

Save, and you'll get the images added to your body.
If you edit the image_article, you can reorder, hide/show images and give
them a custom title instead of the one used for each image node.

If this is something you would like to try send me a message.

Ps. this module was written for 4.7.x.

I'm very interested in this module and since I guess that it doesn't quite support generating groups of images, but it just generates a sorted list of attached images, I'd like to help you with development of installing new features if you want...

Drop me a message and i'll send you the source.
I've rewritten the module so that it will work with any type of nodes, even CCK.
