If you want something to appear on the same page as the page clicked on without another page opening up that you are going to have to look into using some form of javascript show/hide element.

what exactly do you mean by "same page?" you could like, do

<img src = "<?php echo $_GET['picname']; ?>">

for your main picture display and on each thumbnail make the link be like

<a href="samepage.php?picname=picture2.jpg"><img src="thumbnailofpicture2.jpg"></a>

this solution would involve the page reloading, but it's the same page. if you want it to update the main picture from the thumbs without the page reloading then as cunoodle2 said, you'll have to look into javascript.

Well you could do it with php, the page can just reload and keep it's layout. So all you really see is a quick flicker while the page relaods
