If this is the case (crossing fingers) then hopefully people can release vbadvanced and forumhome add ons for previews. actually maybe that's a good addon for the links/downloads right now, a horizontal box on the forumhome with what's hot or new or random. (sorry, typing what I'm thinking lol)

The photolibrary layout works the same way as the rest of LDM, except that its linkbit template defaults to showing several items across the page rather than just one. I suspect there'll be some adjusting necessary when you guys get your hands on it, but we'll see what we can do. I changed the algorithm used to create thumbnails, so that these are better quality - that costs quite a lot of processing time, so the thumbnails are generated when the entry is added rather than when it is viewed.

I'm part way there with this - in the new beta, some of the admin settings can be applied per category but not yet the permissions - but the code has been changed to enable this extension on a later occasion.
