What do u think it's the best free gallery for VB3?
Image gallery or Coopermite gallery?
Are they fully working or have any bugs?
And once I've integreted them wiuth my vb is also the graphic the same as my forum or do I have to make it?
Thanks

you mean 4images and coppermine?
i used both, 4images has more options and is more bug free compared to coppermine, but coppermine is easier to integrate with vb and the template system is easier than 4images

I say pay the money and get the best, photopost is less money then vb.
Think about it, you spend money on vb , why? Due to it is the best software out and most userfriendly.
Why take a good software and intergrate it into anything less then the best. Just my thought.

I've heard nightmares about Photopost both with the software AND the support. I would think one of the other two would be better, myself.

I have yet to have any trouble at all with photopost (never needed much support though)
I have run it for almost a year, never an issue. I would use it over any if I ever needed another, or I would code my own.

i've had a good experience with photopost, i admit the support could do with a bit of work but bar that it's a decent peice of software.

once I've installed and integrated the gallery script do I have to work on the templates to make it look like as the rest of my board?

http://www.photopostdev.com is a good example site of integrated PhotoPost/ReviewPost/Classifieds - we have 5 fulltime support staff and did have some growing pains issues about a year ago when PP really took off, but those have been resolved. (A good example of going the extra mile is a thread posted here from some people having trouble who all got the help they needed to have their sites running smoothly in no time.)
PhotoPost was the first gallery to focus on integration with forums and to use a forum layout. Many of the features you see popping up on gallery products today were innovated by PhotoPost. We've also kept an aggressive development schedule for several years and the current 4.8 version which integrates with vB3 styles is no exception (look for updates to all three products to use the integrated styles shortly).
If you are looking for a free product - there are several decent options and trying doesn't cost you anything but time. But for the price, PhotoPost offers alot of advantages that you don't get with free products.

There are no template issues that I am aware of other than maybe our difference of opinion.
