Thanls.

Now how do I fix it?

www.vbulletin.com for general vBulletin support. This isn't a Gallery issue.

Your mySQL server just got overloaded though.

How is it not a gallery error when it only happened with a gallery file? They will send me right back here.

Increase the number of allowed connections.

Those are vB files, not Gallery. My guess would be that you posted a link to that picture and your site got hit by a ton of connections all at the same time.

To clarify: It's not a Gallery thing per se since the connection is being established through vB and the max connections were reached; it just happended to be Gallery that was using the connection at the time.

How do I stop people linking the images then?
