If the editor isnt selected, and you click a pic... it inserts the freaking pic in the page instead of the editor. Odd stuff. Im sure ill figure that out shortly.
*PhotoPost support is built in however please note that I dont have PP any longer and so I cant really test for it. Therefore, if you are a PP user, let me know if it works
Please click install if you install it.

Hotwheels' modification corrected an issue I was having. My images are all being stored in the "/files" directory and not "/files/1/". This includes my members. I was getting a bunch of the horrid "red x's" where the images should have been. I am running the ORIGINAL vBadvanced Gallery by Brian if that makes a difference. Mine was not upgraded through PP.
By adding the comment that Hotwheels suggested, MY images appear now. I am currently waiting to make sure member submissions do as well.
If the editor does not have focus, the images get thrown in the top of the page. Its a clearly defined Known issue in the first post (always has been).
I am not too sure as to what could cause the blank pages, or bad image paths. The key problem is that this was designed for a version of vbagallery that is no longer available or supported. PP support was put in, but only blindly as I don't own it, and I don't know what else has changed with ppgallery now.
In a nutshell, its a sticky mess and I'm not sure how to proceed. Maybe its best to scrap the hack all together which seems a shame as most people seem to be cracking on pretty well with it.

Geek, it IS a cracking hack and perhaps one of the most useful (except for GARS, of course). We use it all the time.
Not sure if this is a new bug or not, but when the images belong to other categories in addition to the members gallery, I get a bunch of blank thumbnails listed along with the working thumbnails from the member's gallery. Here's a screenshot:
This problem does not occur if no additional category is specified for a given image when it is uploaded by the user.
Impressive hack. Installed nicely, all my images and templates appear to be working correctly, pages change, etc, etc. Using lastest versions of Photopost and VB. When I click on an image, it inserts into the editor,and the image is clearly visible in the editor, but when I submit the post, it puts an http clickable URL to the thumbnail, instead of the thumbnail image itself. I would think that I installed this correctly, as, the images all seem to work correctly, prior to submitting the post.
It's the right URL. I just don't see the actual thumbnail (or actual image, depending upon choice made), in the post. Smilie images get put in without problems.
