Revision: 1.01(XML based Only)


vB iGallery 1.01 (XML based only) requires no database to function
(see V2.02 below for full vBulletin bridge to User Albums)

about:
vB iGallery is an XML based gallery, therefore uses no database queries. It uses Papervision3D flash technology, giving you a unique 3D gallery Xperience. Fully tested on default and custom styles, and cross-browser compatible. Coded to work with vBulletin's DHTML menu system, to stop menu's dropping behind the flash object.

This XML version uses it's own album directories - it is not integrated with vBulletin 3.7.x user albums yet. However, this will be done in a future update.

AUTOMATIC UPDATE NOTIFICATIONS
If you receive another notification about an update within the past 12 hours, this is auto-generated by vbulletin.org if the main release post is changed. I have made a few changes to this post due to some confusion between the 2 versions available. Please make sure you download the correct version for your forum.
