I need a gallery solution
 

In the next week or so I am going to be putting a gallery on my website. So far I have three options.

photopost pro

photoplog pro

vbpic gallery

Please vote or recommend which one I should use.

System stats - VB 3.6.5, Virtual dedicated server with 384 memory and 20 gigs of storage.

I do not want to host video files, just pictures.

Each member should have their own gallery.

Full integration with VB user groups.

Board supporters (people that make donations) will get more storage. - So the gallery needs to support groups and storage limits per group.

Comments and rating system

Some kind of highslide or lightbox integration! - pictures opening in a new window is old technology!

You may also want to look into vbgallery by photopost.

aside of being built with vBulletin core files, this script is not really a good solution.... the original photopost pro is 5 times better with more flexibility and features... that is for the photopost stuff...

<a href="http://www.cpurigs.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=32" target="_blank">vBPicGallery</a> is the best that I've worked with yet.

By the results of the poll, I am going to guess that only 5 people in this forum have a gallery installed on their site?

I use photoplog pro haven't used the others so can't compare but photoplog is great value for money. I updated from free to pro because I wanted the watermarking feature.

What about Gallery 2? I think it's by Menalto

I just wanted to update this thread. After looking at the prices, and what each gallery could and could not do, I bought VBpicgallery.

The one reason why I did NOT go with photoplog - is because each member can not have their own gallery. The admin has to create categories and members upload to those categories.

The reason I did not go with photopost pro or vbgallery is because of price.

The install of vbpicgallery took about 30 - 45 minutes. That includes editing the forumhome template to put 5 random images on the home page. So far I am happy with the results.

I wanted something that plugged straight into the VB without a bridge.

Wrong choice in my opinion Photopost vBGallery is worth event cent but that's my opinion :)

Photopost Pro is the one I use. Never had any problems or complaints with it. ;)
