Most all posts in forum 'x' have attached images (with the thumbnail)

I would like the thumbnail, for each post, to show in its subject line, in the forum display ...

This has been requested umpteen times here, 1 fellow came up with something to random display (of sorts) but nothing done.

Willing to pay for this mod if need be - Lil Help please? Thanks!

Well, this hack has now been done. It cost me some change, so I cant go about releasing it just yet til I can get some of that change recouped.

I have attached a full screenshot so you can see what it looks like, along with the server queries.

It was nicely done ... I had him do the basics and then left it to me to make some options for settings in admincp (IE: Which forums uses this and which do not ... etc) course, ya could always do that with conditionals in the templates.

If you want this hack PM me and we can discuss splitting the cost on it.

No pile of queries (see the shot I attached here) - On an unhacked forumdisplay, it yields a total of 13 queries. With boofos forum stats (which I use on mine) it yields a total of 14 queries (as shown here in this shot).

Drop me a PM Zach letting me know where to send the attachment, and i'll let you check out how its done if ya like.

one very last question - if someone upps a pic and then adds a rar to the same attachment box would the preview of the pic still show on forum display ?
