We've updated the gallery app used in the website which offers you a number of new options

  • Although a different app (Coppermine Gallery) it is integrated with the vBulletin site so you only logon once and it shares the same data
  • You can add your own gallery photos. To add a gallery, when on the gallery page, click on My Profile/Create / order my albums. Lower left is a button to add a gallery - has a green + sign
  • Uploading to the gallery is done by selecting the gallery to post to and then select files: it will give you a Windows Dialog box that you can select single or multiple files.
  • Be aware, the gallery will resize the uploaded images automatically.
  • After uploaded, you'll get a page to add photo names, comments, etc.

The gallery works fine with Internet Explorer, FireFox and Chrome. Microsoft Edge will only upload single images. (Edge and Flash do not play well together). I havent' been able to try Safari.

One of the benefits is you can upload your files here and then use them on other forums and link back to the image. Many were doing this with Photobucket till they came out with their new fee structure.

We imported the images from the old gallery although some of the folder structure was lost. If you want, you can rebuild and move them within your folders as you wish.

If you have questions, fire away.
