I'm probably being a complete idiot but I don't see the filmstrip anywhere?

Also I've added the "Adding quick upload and gallaries box in new thread / reply?" add-on and there is a problem when creating a new PM. When creating a new thread or post it shows the "replybox" below, but when creating a new PM the "Open" link doesn't show (see "pmbox" below).

Imagehosting, everything was working fine before I upgraded, the image is uploaded correctly and the watermark is in the right folder...

but it's just not putting the watermark when people upload and it's giving an error...

here you go

just import the attached plugin


and add the following code in your forumhome template

    <table class="tborder" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
	<thead>
		<tr>
			<td class="tcat" colspan='$vbimghost[count]' align="center">$vbphrase[vbimghost_last5img] </td>

Hello Ranma2k, we need one more issue for this fantastic stuff.

Non registered users can see all public images that where uploaded by registered users. Is it possible to restrict any usergroup to see or not to see?

I think it´s even important to reduce the serverload.

And one more thing. In the acp is the option to view member images. This is just working fine if i look for images with a specified membername. You give the option to show all images by all member if not emter a username - (enter "all" without quotes to view all pictures) -.

That option ist not working. It says "User did not upload any images".

Fresh install on 3.5.5.

Thanks for your help.

well since the user set the pic to public anyone can view the images

As for adding view permission to each group I'll add it in the next ver


As for the view all
Just type all and it should work with you fine
is anyone else having the same problem ?!
