Hence, we're doing an overhaul. If I understand the software correctly, you'd be able to rate the images and then sort by ratings, or by artist, meaning that you could view only images that are to your standards should you wish to keep it to that. It would be like the Artist's Gallery forum with many improvements.

That's the point. Updating is such a hassle that no one has done it in years.Originally Posted by Nick Schovitz
The "fan art" currently on the frontsite hasn't been updated in an eternity. You might as well consider it dead to us now.
Just like Jimmy.
Poor Jimmy.
Did anyone here even check source forge?

That looks like what you are looking for and it is FREE.
We've live-tested at least 3-4 different free galleries already. I think that might have been one of them, too. Not sure since there's no real examples shown that I can see, also that one looks like it's still in development? And the development started in ...2003?
The software we're intending on using is fully functional, has a huge variety of features and can fully integrate into vBulletin. The details are found here: http://www.photopost.com/
I don't think the one you've mentioned has the support or amount of features we're really looking for.

That one was just an example. There are tons of other ones. Of course anything free isn't going to be as great as something you pay for(or so it would seem in this case) but development of any piece of software never stops. If it did stop then you would only need version 1.0 as your final end all release
I was just mainly checking to see if you guys had gone out to see and test free stuff first as I don't recall having that mentioned.
What's the link to donate ?

Yeah, we've actually spent the past year (obviously not non-stop) testing various gallery software. Some of them were quickly dumped as they didn't have features we desired and others were dumped after we realised the support for them was crap or the software just wasn't suited for a community rather than a single artist. Sepho, Spatvark, Samuraid, Rye, Unne and myself all worked on the last one we tried and we had it tested by artists, too, such as Doofhull and Unne. Still no luck, though. Looking at how many features this has and the fact that it's designed in the same fashion as vBulletin, I think this is exactly what we're after.
EDIT: Renmiri, please see the announcements for details. The link is in them as well.

We surely wouldn't just jump to buying a 129 dollar piece of software without trying out other alternatives first.
It's in stage 1 (development) meaning that they may not even have a single line of code written yet. We would only consider it if it were in RC or Final development stage.
I am sure you are not surprised at the number of people who wouldn't try alternatives first and because of that I don't give you guys enough credit to look at alternatives first so NAH
I don't feel like edit my other post so...Here is this one.
I honesetly only looked at the features and not much more because it was to be an example.
In that case we won't give you enough credit to listen to your suggestions.I am sure you are not surprised at the number of people who wouldn't try alternatives first and because of that I don't give you guys enough credit to look at alternatives first so NAH

Paying for software? Are you guys nuts?
Don't worry. Its not like I have every really agree with much of what you have done and the same goes vis-versa. It is what makes the relationship so greatIn that case we won't give you enough credit to listen to your suggestions.
