I want an image gallery on my forum (y'know, the same ones as they have on IPB) and was wondering if there's a mod for it?
That's a great idea.
If anyone do this, it will be great.
You could find an image gallery, such as Coppermine and bridge it with MyBBoard, that's what I did.
Good idea!
Buuuut.... it would be better if MyBB had it's own Image Gallery (as IPB do).

MyBB members have been down this road by multiple users multiple times(Search). I myself have suggested the gallery mod more than once. Out of desperation I made a mod suggestion to pull the photos from a cat(A feature VB and IPB have). Hey, it was better than nothing
Someone took my idea and made it into a mod so I'm thankful for that. At least a forum can be used as a gallery if done right. My greatest suggestion to you is create a forum just for photo uploading. I have a drum forum, so I dedicate 1 forum to "Show us your kit" Then just those photos will appear in the index page.
I made my own image uploader.... It's the easiest and best thing to do if nothings out for mybb.
Ive just made a forum now dedicated to uploading images. Thanks for replies.
looks good will this be available as a mod to download
You can also get a simple gallery script that will basically read the uploads folder. Do some searching there are a lot of free and simple scripts to do this.

Try his gallery demo...it might be usable for a mybb gallery.
