    Fixed...was a permissions error...thumbnails need execute permissions.

    You just type them in when you create a thread...I imagine there's also a way to edit them...There's an Edit Tags option for me, but it may be because I'm admin. There's no "generate" tags though...its a manual type in process.

    You guys don't have to go back and add tags to old threads unless you really really want to. Its not mandatory, but it is helpful really.

    The CL's have been bugging me to add some form of "gallery" capability to the site for a LONG time...and I've been putting it off because I knew the 3.7 version of vBulletin would have it built in...I just had to wait for it to come out of beta.

    Bare with me...I'm going to experiment a little with the built in ad placement capability of 3.7...there will be duplicate Google ads on the page as a result until I figure it out.

    Edit: Done...wow this stuff is easy.

    so now i'm going to have a pop-up flash window thingy pop up every time I click an attachment instead of it opening a new browswer window automatically?

    yes, thats the lightbox...I don't see a way to turn that off per user...but I did find out that if you right click on it and choose open in new window or open in new tab it skips the lightbox.

    ya... that's what I have to do almost everywhere else... I just liked the fact that it did it automatically ... I multitask alot and tho it probably seems inane, it's one less click I have to make when it opens automatically .... but I think I can set my browswer and mouse to open in a new window with a middlebutton click.... I'll get over it ... just takes a while to get used too...
