Other than a few things on my wish-list, i.e. images being able to be used for mp3's, video files, etc. rather than the default ones currently available. I gotta say, this was the easiest hack I've ever had to do. No problems whatsoever and my members love it. No annoying upload past 2mb problems, and no problems trying to integrate with Vbulletin. Now....I just gotta figure out what to do with my Photopost. I'd like to give props to all of those that have worked hard on this. I can't wait to see what else is in store!

Thats my gallery. While non-members can't access the video/mp3 files, they can still view the gallery. Everything on the board was converted over from Photopost as well. Let me hear your feedback.

Whitetigergrowl,

Based upon your server you may still have the 2mb upload limitation when uploading remotely. Uploading from the server should be fine, though.

I've uploaded some 25-30 mb files directly with no problems. I haven't tried uploading from the server yet. BTW...thats a kick ass skin on your site. How much did that set ya back? LOL 2...maybe 3 car payments?

If you've been able to upload more than 2mb at a time that means you're lucky enough enough to be on a server where the upload_max_filesize in PHP has been bumped up. I, unfortunately, am being shown no love by my hosting company. Anything bigger than 2mbs I have to FTP to the server first and then bring into Gallery.

Thanks for the compliment on the VB style. And, yes, it was a car payment or so. It's an expensive hobby, but it keeps me out of trouble.

Because it's on a dedicated server, I bumped up the upload_max_filesize in the php.ini. Yeah my site is on a dedicated server and it's been growing rather rapidly. Honestly, faster than even I had anticipated. It started out on a shared server on another webhost...but quickly outgrew that. My site is less than 1 year old, and by the time it's 1 yr old in Feb, I should have over 1,500 or 1,600 members.

Here is my webhost. It's a very awesome webhost...and after numerous horrible ones...I can say my site has finally found it's home. I've only been with them for about a month, but man, they are great. NO Setup fees...and you can pay month to month. There is no 3 months in advance crap. Thats great news for those on tight budgets as it is. VERY AWESOME AND QUICK tech support. 24 hours/7 days a week. I've had them on at 2:30 am before! You can also contact them on MSN AND Yahoo. Cpanel, Fantastico2, and more. I really can not stress that enough. For those interested, take a browse. :

AND btw, that must be one big payment on the Beemer of yours. LOL.
