Just wondering how I can get my gallery2 to auto-generate thumbnail forum code like image shack (where if you click it it will take you to the full page, or similar).

If that is impossible, how do I go about linking thumbnails on forums to the image?. I've found one way to do it by using [URL]and[IMG] but that only works on some forums - I'm guessing because the generated thumbnails/pictures in gallery2 don't link to a .jpg, but rather PHP code.

Also, is it at all possible to use a flash based uploader rather then a HTML uploader?. Don't get me wrong - I like the html uploader, but when you have to upload lots of images it gets really annoying really quick having to select every single image and then request a new upload slot for another one.

Thank you.

Use a different method to add items: http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:How_to_Add_Items

Hi there,

I already knew how to add the item in question to the forum, but the forum I am using refuses to work with it - but it works with imageshack. My guess is imageshack has the image extension directly on the link instead of html/php.

So how would I go about doing the same?.
