I'll test it out.

A thing I would like to add, which led me to believe it's a permissions issue in the first place, is that it concerns all usergroups but the admins. I didn't notice this myself, but one of my mods pointed it out. I tested it with users in several groups...

What are you playing with ?

I have it working with Web Effects from Opencube.com, but it is only for rotating the avatars of my recent donors. I would not recommend using Web Effects as it is not free and I have not found a way to make the cycling of images continuous, i.e. the picture area is empty at the beginning and end, it goes through some whitespace before it starts the images again.

Let me know what your using and I will try to play around with it. My main problem here is that the imagebit calculation and assembly is now done in the core VBA files. I don't want to make changes to those files as it will affect the rest of my site. Do I have this right?

Thanks!

Can you please tell me the unistallation instruccions for the 1.9 version?
Then i could install this new version

Edit: is not working for me, i don't see the block :S

[Skavenger]

It's working now!
The problem was that I forget editing the includes/init.php file after upgrading to 3.6.4 =P

Edit:
forums/includes/init.php

Find:
require_once(CWD . '/includes/class_core.php');

Below Add:
require_once(CWD . '/includes/functions_gallery_store.php');

Is it possible to make 2 different modules for 2 separate page with this hack?

In vbgallery (not the vb gallery cmps addon) If I exclude a category in the Main Index Page Options, it breaks my cmps module and I get this error.

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.4:
