My apologies for double posting, but I thought perhaps I had put this in the wrong forum since I got no responses in the other forum.
====================================
The feature of displaying the list of thread attachments with the paperclip symbol in the forum index is very useful. However, the names of attachment images are not always useful. I would like to display a page similar to the current one, but fill it with thumbnails instead of links to the images with a link to the post that contains the attachment.
This seems so obvious to me that I presume someone must have already done it. I have tried quite a few searches of this site without any success in finding such a mod.
The code in misc.php is there to display the list and also to display avatars in the way I would like to display the thumbnails. However, I have never created a mod for vBulletin and I suspect this one would be too challenging for a first attempt.
Can anyone help or give advice on this? Does such a mod already exist? Why is this not an option for the feature in vBulletin?
If there is nothing like this available, I may take a shot at developing it. However, this would be my first mod so I might not do it all that well.
