I was wondering if anyone knew of a module that allows you to create a gallery of mixed media (images and videos).

I am creating an online portfolio for my artwork. I have a content type called 'artwork' each artwork node will have videos and images attached to it. I wanted to having a list of thumbnails that when clicked on display the image or video in a lightbox or thickbox pop up or on the page itself.

I'm not sure if such a module exists or if there is anyway to achieve this.

Any help is appreciated.

I would go about doing this using Views. For the lightbox, I would use Colorbox.

I tried installing Colorbox but I cannot get it to work. Here is an example:

When you click on the image, it is supposed to open a larger version of the image in Colorbox. However it's just opening the image in the browser.

I have the following modules installed:

jquery update 6.x-2.0-alpha1
colorbox 6.x-1.0-beta6

I have both colorbox javascript files (jquery.colorbox-min.js and jquery.colorbox.js) installed at this directory:

sites/all/libraries/colorbox

Thickbox wasn't working either, so I'm wondering if there's something else conflicting with lightboxes in general on my website?

Never mind, I just didn't install Colorbox correctly. I got it working.
