Thanks, it took some effort making it work with phpbb :) I am also considering to display only, say, 10 most popular (viewed) thumbnails in each posts, while others would be made visible after user action (probably click on a link). We have got a large and ever growing number of mobile users with limited data transfers (almost each fourth member now) and this might help them considerably.

Can anyone else confirm problems with thumbs in chrome?

Would this be a button or a text link, which might say 'show all thumbs for this post' or something?

Probably a text link, my current idea is to display the remaning thumbs in the same post after user clicks the link, but opening another page and other means are also possible. I don't have a clear vision of it yet, so final version is up to discussion. Having a facebook-style 4 large most popular thumbnails visible by default, combined with lazy loading is my current favorite.

I would also like to implement some other changes like making "newest post first" default, but that could piss off / confuse some members, so I have to be careful there.

If I am scrolling down a page and had to click on the link to see all thumbs for each post ( which I will be doing) because I want to see all the thumbs, and if it opened up another window/tab each time, I'd get pissed off real quick.

Seeing "newest post first" wouldn't bother me, it's how I'm set up anyway.

Perhaps it could be somehow selectable via settings? Thumbs displaying is one of the most important parts of the site, so it deserves a deeper discussion. Anyway, I will now be occupied with the new image uploader and other things, so no need to hurry. When the time comes, I will set up a new topic about the issue and promote it to the front page, so that everyone can have a say. Feel free reply here as well, though

:) Note that it may take some time - I still remember the pain setting up the current uploader in phpbb. Btw: I am amazed it still works, I set it up during the transfer crisis years ago as an "emergency solution for a week or two".

Are we really going to get this front page thing ?

Yes, but currently I need to get the advertising + some other short-run upgrades going, which will also count to the actual new website. Something is already done, some will be in next several days. I will TRY to post more to the admin section.

Can't explain what is going on but it doesn't matter, I've used TemperMonkey to fix this problem like I did all the other quirks on this site.
