Does anybody know of a good phpbb hack/addon that will enable picture galleries/photoalbums??

Use eg. ImageShack (http://imageshack.us/).

Simple as ABC.

Just upload your pic then copy/paste the given "Thumbnail for forums" code line to your post and you're all set.

Although if the original pic is small enough it won't give the thumbnail option.

Imageshack does create the thumbnails for you, but for the whole galleries.. I dunno. I think Photobucket (http://www.photobucket.com/) let's you maintain whole galleries but it requires user registration. I'm not sure. I've never used 'Bucket myself. If I post pics I just shove them to ImageShack.

For the php-stuff, I have absolutely no idea :D

dont know if there is a phpBB mod for auto showing images as thumbs, but IPB has such feature so it is not unlikely there is a phpBB mod.

Try look at www.phpbb.com or google for phpbb image thumb scale mod hack and similar words :)
