When we first moved to our new home and upgraded our board software, we added in a feature called "Garage."
It worked well, but the author saw a larger need for the software and set about rewriting it completely.
That left us in a bit of a lurch because the software we had was lacking a few features.
Well, the new version is out and has a strong following. So, we upped for the new code and it just got installed. (Didn't feel a thing, did ya?)
You'll notice a new item in the second menu bar called Garage.
Click it and you'll go to out new "VBPicGallery" where all (just Mine so far) of our galleries will be listed.
You can add your Garage to the list by clicking on "Manage My vBPicGallery"
Fill in the first three lines to give you garage a description and click submit.
You will then see something like a post with a bunch of titles already typed in.
Fill in those sections as appropriate. You can delete and change any of them. It's just text and they are only suggested titles.
I would recommend clicking on submit after you're done all that typing.
Then go back into your gallery and upload pictures.
The reason I suggest submitting the text before uploading pictures is because if you upload a picture that is too big, you will get an error and all your typing will get wiped out. By the way, I cranked up the allowed picture size to 200K EDIT: now it's 300K. Don't worry about height and width, the software resizes everything down to 640 by 480. If the original is smaller, it leaves it alone.
We expect this software to live a good long life. So, fill it up and have fun.
