I was wondering if somebody could make a hack that adds a Picture Gallery to the forum. I believe this is an excellent idea, so just read to how I'd imagine this can work:

A new forum would be created for the picture gallery. Everytime somebody posts a thread in that forum, and attatch an image, then a request would be made to the moderator of that forum to add their image to the picture gallery. Before the user actually submits the picture, they can select what category they want the picture to go in, and their text in the post will be the description of the image.

Okay, so the thread is created, and an image is attached by a regular user. Now the moderator goes to some other page (created by this hacker) that allows the moderator to accept or reject the requested submissions to the gallery. If they reject it, then the thread gets automatically deleted.

There would be a gallery page of course in which anybody who is registered can go and browse the different categories within the gallery.

I used to have a gallery, and it had the following categories:
> Wallpapers
> Signatures
> Graffiti

It would be greatly appreciated if somebody could create such a hack. I believe it would be usefull and wanted by many many members. -Thanks

you dont need a hack for this. is purelly template based. all you have to do is make a new set of templates.. the pics will be as attachments.. if you really want to have a different display for the images, simply add a new image table and rename your variables in showthread.php
