and hell, while im post whoring up this thread

how hard would it be to limit who can upload by a group in VBB... i know the group numbers that i would like to allow to upload, but i dont have the coding knowledge to limit so only they can upload but everybody else can view. also, would it be possible to automatically add them to the "registered" or whatever group in Gallery. or are these steps that i will have to do?

I achieved what you are talking about by creating a group of users from within the gallery2 admin CP and then assigning them full access. It's a bit of duplication - but it works and is uncomplicated.

And.... I have a site set up that views the photos from outside the 'http://www.mysite.com/photos/' directory. So the 'backend' I refer to is the gallery2 admin cp access from within the 'http://www.mysite.com/photos/' directory. It helps keep other forum users out of that area because they *probably* won't think to look there. And I found I was using too many folders, so this helped reduce the number of sub-directories on the site.
