Album categories: use vb's album system as yoursite's image gallery.
 

Abe1 has shown us with his All Albums hack how user albums can be used to create an image gallery based upon members. i.e. the main page will show all available member albums. This is one step away from becoming a real image gallery:

Image gallery categories.

If user albums would have categories associated with them, then:
- admins would create appropriate categories
- users would have to select a category for their albums (drop down)
- a main page with the categories could be created.
- under these categories one would see all albums associated with that category.

If anyone thinks this is doable and wants to do this, then your efforts will be highly valued by me and many other vb admins.

yep.. we want categories :(

noone who can handle this ?

I am bumping this idea!

I love that we can have a display of "All Albums". But having "Admin Set" categories that members could mark their albums as and then display in a "Main Gallery" would be FANTASTIC.

If members could click the categories to view all Member albums that are marked as "Photos" or pics marked as "Artwork". That way, you don't have to sift through any of their random junk albums and just get to the good stuff!

also do I bumping this idea!

Take a look to Scandal's vBGallery :up:

I'm keeping a close eye on it. It's very promising.
Please see my requests in your thread.
