The fix for this is to make sure that you create a folder called 'imagehosting' under your forums folder, and give it 777 rights. The install instructions don't say anything about creating this folder (that I saw).

suggestion ... Is there some sort of htaccess rewrite rule so that, once an image has been deleted a default image can take it's place rather than a red X ?

Very nice....thanks

I have tested this with 3.6.x beta 3, and it works just fine.
A couple suggestions/requests. It would be nice if there was an option to select multiple images at once and then change their permissions (private, public, delete).

It would also be awesome if there was a way to associate an image with a thread. For instance, if I posted the image to a thread and describe in that thread where I took the shot and what it was all about, then it would be great to be able to go back to the image host overview, and add the thread link to the image description somehow, preferably with thread title and thread link.

Great work, thanks for the mod and keep it up.
