Those 3% that do care about dimensions, they probably know how to find them (by looking at properties of the pic).

Thanks Zachariah!

Hey Zachariah,

Any ideas about my problem? I'm figuring its not seeing the gallery. I'm hoping it's a simple fix.

Guests or all users ?
- when was the last time you updated your gallery ?
- did you have the old ver of the hack installed before the beta ? - if so was it working ?

[TitanJeff]

It was everyone. And totally my goof. I didn't do part B because I read the instructions wrong.

Works perfectly!!! Many thanks.

Reading wrong is not a problem.
- I speak english and bad english
- There is an on going bug w/ guests not being able to see on some installs. I have not found yet what the cause is.

I have installed in 2-3 different setups w/o problems.

I do have one more question. I am able to see it on my index at http://www.gotitans.com/goForum but it doesn't appear to show up for registered users or guests.

installed looks great

Admin CP >> Vba Gallery >> Category Permissions >> and make a change to one of the groups

This took care of my problem of it not showing up for guests and registered users.
