Hopefully sometime after lunch tomorrow...maybe by Saturday if I get too busy...the Member Galleries will be good to go. There are some changes in the system that you need to be aware of. Most are meant to make the Member Galleries a more rounded image hosting and display solution. Here are the changes so far: Fixed size restrictions have been removed. There is a limit in PHP on how large an uploaded file can be...I need to check php.ini and see what that is...
EXIF is now fully supported. (IPTC will be coming soon)
PayPal users can purchase additional storage space instantly. Additional options will be available, but the upgrade most be made "by hand".
All uploaded photos will be watermarked with a 120x60 graphic in the lower-right corder (offset 5px from the sides).
Leeching from the Member Albums will be opened up (hence the watermarking). This policy is subject to change as site performance dictates. Leeching protections will remain in place on images attached to thread posts and Critique Corner images.
Image manipulation filters (like PS filters) will be available. Initially, they will be add/reduce noise, blur, sharpen, drop shadow, rotate, boarder, contrast, gamma correction, brightness, flip h & v, grayscale, despeckle, enhance edges, emboss, and buttonize. There might be a couple more when all's finished.

That's all I can think of at the moment. I'll be sure to keep everyone informed and welcome any comments. :)

Yeah, but this is a dedicated server...connect SSH to the machine root, GET php.ini, open it up in UltraEdit, change the value, then PUT it back.

5MB enough? :P :lol:
