Major Features

Multiple Instances You can run an unlimited number instances of the gallery on the same forum with same set of files! Each instance can have a different look and feel to it, and with enough work can have a completely different function because of the system we built it on.

AJAX integration We used AJAX wherever we could to help reduce the page reloads

Automatic resizing and thumbnail creation As long as your server can handle it, the users can upload whatever size pictures they want. The gallery will control the size displayed and stored, and will even create a thumbnail, all automatically. Users no longer have to worry about resizing their images to fit what your forum specifies. If you do not have a server with the power to resize images (GD image library can get pretty memory intensive) then you can set the gallery to reject images that do not fit into your size criteria.

User Albums Users can create their own image albums to organize and display sets of their images. Albums can also be set to hidden and/or password protected. So users who want to have images for only certain friends or not visible to anyone else at all can easily organize them.

Using screen resolution: 1280x1024

By zooming out on the page, it works fine. But not on this resolution.

Also.. "Gallery Layout: New Style" is also having issues:

The problem is I designed it to give the most latitude for each user considering the different resolutions available.

If you have a fixed style width then you can set the max image width in the stylevars - dbtech_gallery_max_width

If the style isn't fixed width and your resolution just isn't large enough to fit the image you can go to your gallery profile, edit your My Information section and set the max width that you will see.

The gallery software will take the lesser value of the 3 (stylevar/my info/actual image width) and use that to display the image.

The enlarge button is only showed on non logged in users and if i loged in us admin .
Normal registred users dont see the button,
and the picture is always full sized and override the page.

How to solve this ? Was checking / trying all kinds of options and permissions
but nothing solved it.

You can set the style to have a default width (stylevars - dbtech_gallery_max_width) or you can set your own gallery profile to have a default width (Gallery My Profile / Edit My Information).

Guests don't have a gallery profile so their max viewable image width is hardcoded to 500px wide.

Hope that helps.

The New Style option should have a pencil next to the image name below the image to edit an image details. But you can use either style option you want

I'm a few shades past tarnished myself

I would try these out in your php.ini, should work good for uploading images, since it's dedicated you can adjust as needed.

post_max_size = 15M
upload_max_filesize = 15M
memory_limit = 128M

Security Hotfix for v1.2.4

We found some xss exploits with editing an image and added a hotfix release to address the issue.

Please download the v1.2.4 package again and re upload the files. There is no need to import the product xml file again as this is a file only fix.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Dylan your php recommendation worked perfectly. Thank You. I went to buy my pro version since things are working great and I am confused with the licensed. Is [AddOn] Branding Free: Dragonbyte Gallery - Lifetime Receives Updates For: Lifetime both the branding fee and the software? That's what I want.
