I wrote some code today. I'm using some code snippets and the basic logic that magnus sent me. I believe the author was Action-N and magnus. Thanks again to both of them for sharing. We needed some logic, code, and templates to do this addition and again they cheerfully provided them.
vBGarage public release will be an adaptation using the above logic, some edited code, and some edited templates. If you have seen those branchs of the code, you may see some similarities and some differences in the adaptation.
You can see what I have so far at my Computer Rigs Forum. I have two garages set up to view. I really need a few testers to register and login to test using the garage to provide feedback on addition work.
There are database changes, template changes, template additions, and an updated vbgarage.php so far. URL's are also affected by including/passing addition variables.
Comments are needed in this thread, please give us your two sense and we'll see where the chips fall.
Here's the list of changes so far...

Actually thank *you* for the hard work! Oh and I just checked the other fixes. It looks great now that the php and other code tags don't warp the page.
Is there anything in particular on vbgarage you want us to debug? If not I'll just go ahead and test things at random.
Appreciate the help.
Mostly we need eyes on the output and the new editing stuff tested. Especially since I added a load of file handling stuff last night. If there is a file upload issue now, you should get a relative error message.
I have the uploads at 1MB currently. I'm gonna lower it to 64K to play with the pic errors.
I wrote the installer for a 3.1.0 beta release tonight.
The beta upgrade will entail...
Running the beta upgrader which...
Performs all DB updates of columns and indexes
Installs a new ACP setting
Installs the new Phrases
Installs 6 new templates
Running the vbg_convert script to assign images garage ids
Updating the existing nine templates (full replacements)
Installing the new vbgarage.php
I have done the first part on my live M/C forums with the upgrader. This part modifies the DB and installs the new setting, setting phrases, new templates, and global phrases. It is rerunable and reports what is going on pretty good.
I will modify the remaining templates and go live tomorrow. (I hope)
That will leave 4.0.3 behind for me and my focus will be on 4.1.0.
4.0.3 will continue to be supported because it will be necessary to have installed 4.0.3 to install 4.1.0. (For now. I will probably write a full installer for 4.1.0)
The beta will be posted when I finish converting my live M/C forums.
You need to have 4.0.3 installed and working. Then the upgrade is real easy. You run three seperate files and then upload the new vbgarage.php.
Of course there is the edit and save a pharse thing to do and the checking of the ACP settings, but it should be an easy upgrade.
Do a backup and have your forums closed when you perform the upgrade.
So when this new release with the multiple garages gets out, will we have to have 4.0.3 installed, or will we be able to uprade our current version dirctly to 4.0.3? (I'm running the very first version)

It's out in the beta section as vBG 4.1.0 beta.
You can upgrade from any 4.0.x version and should be ok.
