vbGallery does exactly what the email states on the points that it states. For example vbgallery replaces the profile tab and gallery image block. Thats what the email claims. Nowhere is anything about the social thing meantioned in our marketing email.
My thoughts are this here as I have been a long time customer of vbulletin for at least I beleive 8-9 years. I have read the recent leak on the status of vbulletin and the direction it is going right from there mouths. I think alot of
vb customers are going to be taken back by alot of there new policies and pricing and support structure since they where aquired by Internet Brands. There is alot of back peddling over there on there site right now dealing with this leak trying to appease their customers.
Simply put there will be no gallery product released by vbulletin. There is no meantion of adding gallery structure into the
vb albums feature as in adding categories etc. Photopost Pro or vbGallery are the best options if you want a gallery on your site. Thats my opinion as even though I work here I was first and formost a customer here in the early days. The softwares have come along way all of them.
Our email just deals with
vb albums and states how it is not a gallery product and you get alot more functionality using vbGallery instead of
vb albums. So 2.5 adds in some important concepts customers wanted like the flash uploader and tighter profile integration which was done and we sent an email and gave people 30 days free access to try it.
You know what I hope to come from all the mess over vbulletin right now is maybe as they try and make there own cms system that they fix the one major bug in there code they refuse to fix. You know how most applications prefix there images and script names with there url
vb has always refused to do that. Maybe they will properly do this now we shall see and then we will not have to do rewrites of
vb urls anymore.
