I am really enjoying using your gallery it is ideal for my site. I have a couple of points that do not seem to have been mentioned on here.

But I do seem to be having a problem with users not always getting their emails, so they can't activate their account. But when I check in the CP it tells me that there are no users waiting for activation. I end up deleting their original account and then adding a new one.

Also not a problem unless I need guidance blushing.gif I can't see a way of looking at the most recently added pics, unless I change my view and then it only gives me the last 6. On 'Browse' I see there is an option for recently added comments but not pics is there something I can't find? Or do I just use the search and add an * to the field?

Would just like to thank you for the gallery, it is certainly very popular with my forum members so much so I have moved it to another site to make better use of bandwidth!

Thanks for your comments!

1. I think the most likely cause why they're not getting their activation emails is that their email accounts are tagging them as spam. Since the emails are generated by a script, some spam filters are suspicious of them. If you want, test it out and then let me know if that's in fact the case. If it isn't, I'll look into it further for you.

2. There's an easier way. Just do a search without editing any of the fields and it will display all your pictures in 'last added' order.

1. I guess there are a number of reasons (AOL Mainly!) why they don't get an email and it is the only odd one or two. I have just realised that the 'approve pending users' is when they have to be admin approved, I was presuming this was a way to activate the accounts and had misread its use iykwim. I can soon activate them via MySQL.

2. I shall let everyone know that they should use the search.

Thanks once again - my site members are really enjoying using it!
