I'm planning the setting up of a second site and will definitely be using vBulletin again, but I'm not as impressed with PhotoPost Pro 5.5 (which I use with VB 3.6.4 already) as I am with vB.

I'd be interested to hear what your favourite gallery solutions are and, if possibly, why, for use with vBulletin.

Thanks,

Ian

By far, PhotoPost vBGallery.

The cost, for the features is spot on.

I have always been a bit confused between PP Pro and the vBGallery version - they are different programs, fundamentally, aren't they?

What are the key differences - why do two versions exist?

Photopost can exist separate of vbulletin and can integrate into other forum software. vbGallery was actually built on reversed Photopost code and designed to better intergrate into vbulletin as the original Photopost was more difficult to integrate becuase that was never it's main intent.

vbgallery can not be used on it's own. It needs vBulletin to run. With that said, PP Pro all the way.

dpnow, here's a quick comparison of the two...

PhotoPost Pro is comparatively better due to SEO-friendly URLs (personally)
