Hmmmm, well I was playing around and just wanted to again verify that in photopost 5.11 when you select a stylesheet AND have vbulletin2 integration enabled, the style does not apply to the gallery apperance. In the vbulletin2 admin panel I can clearly see and even save the apperance settings (saves them as a .style file), the settings are saved at the top of this .style file and delineated by "|||" between each var. The problem is multi-faceted though:
A) One would have to know how to convert a vbulletin "|||" delineated data string to a valid stylesheet.
B) Even if I did make a stylesheet using this appearance settings data, the photopost gallery won't use the style selection when vbulletin2 integration is enabled.
C) If I turn off vbulletin2 integration to use the proper stylesheet and apperance, every bit of value-add for which I chose photopost in the first place, is negated.
D) I shouldn't have to even be thinking about this, because the upgrade script should have facilitated a proper transfer of apperance settings for use in a 5.11+vbulletin2 integrated environment! In 3.2.1 I was able to use vb2 integration IN ADDITION TO being able to explicitly set the apperance variables. Now I can't even select stylesheets that are applicable to the rendered page while vb2 integration is enabled... argh.

Also, for clarification, I did make sure that config-inc.php was properly compiled using a hybrid of all the relevant and needed settings from both the old 3.2.1 version and 5.11 version.

So, awaiting input. Thanks again for any/all help.

Thanks,
Jayson
