Do you want to use a seperate field in database for album_level or still use forum's user group?
- Advantage of using a different field for album level is: you canspecify who is album admin, and dont care if they are forum admin ornot. you may have seperate persons doing different jobs.
- Disadvantage: you will have to work more on the code to have it done,and change your database alittle bit , not too hard, I suppose, buteverytime you upgrade your vBulletin, you have to remember making thechange again.

Let me see if I understand this corretly:
Option 1: Fix a few bugs, but basically leave the mod the same.
Option 2: The webmaster will now have the ability to choose who has admin privileges in the Gallery separate from those who have admin privileges in the Forum.
I just installed it. But am I right in assuming that as it is writing now, if one user has admin privileges in the picture gallery they will also have admin privileges in the forum? But after rewriting the Mod and adding a separate field in database for album_level, the webmaster will then have the ability to choose who has admin privileges in the Gallery separate from those who have admin privileges in the forum?
As my site grows, I am going to want to give some users the ability to validate pictures in the Galleries (making my job easier), which I believe requires them to have admin privileges. However, I don't want those same users to have admin privileges in the Forum. With that said. My vote is to "use a separate field in database for album level". The extra work needed to do this I believe, will pay off in the long run.
