I created a category called "air" Then I created a album inside this called "air show" The air show pics are showing up in both the air and the air show. Can this be fixed? I may of messed up. It is starting to look good except for my header pic. Although that could just be a matter of my preference. In case you need to see this I included the link.

Thank you for the link.. It helps.
Your current structure appears to be:
Cat: Air
Album: Air
Album: Air show
Cat: Air Show
Guessing you want the Air show album under the Air Show category? If so, go to album properties for Air show and change its category...
When you view a parent category, the random and last added pics will be from all categories/albums under it... As you move lower, the scope narrows - until you are looking at a single album.
Not knowing what else you have to add... (and there is no right/wrong - just preference..) I might suggest a structure like:
Cat: Aviation
Cat: Air Shows
Album: Thunder Over Michigan
etc.....
Cat: General Aviation
etc...
Of course Air Shows could just be an album if you want all airshows together... Or Thunder Over Michigan could be a category if you wanted albums by year...
A lot of flexibility..

Thank you for your advice which was well received. What I was after was having a category called air and in this was everything from balloons to airplanes clouds sunsets etc in their own album. I Like your structure for set up because it is more to the point and everyone will know exactly what is in the album. I have two folders for two and a half years of airshows which total over 25gb of pics. I think I will start over and use your method because it just sounds better structure wise and visitors should have no problem finding what they need. No I wont be putting all of those pics up but I have some nice shots in air and on the ground which will look good in Coppermine. Thank you for your time and support.
