Hi there, not sure where to post this as it's not really an issue but just a request for some advice.

I have a paid usergroup that will have access to the gallery which appears to be easy to configure.

My only concerns are that I use a payment/subscription manager and not the built in Vbulletin one. It manages my paid usergroup as monthly and yearly subscriptions.

If someone only joins for one month and cancels then the payment processor moves them from the paid usergroup to the free usergroup without gallery access.

I just wondered will their uploaded images still exist and would I have to manage them separately?

I was thinking the only way around this for ease of managment is to only give gallery access to yearly accounts but I assume I would still have to manage the resources of the gallery manually?

thanks for any thoughts/advice you may have or the way you run a similar paid gallery service!!
