Photo Plug-In for 0.92.8?

[EwanG]

Anyone got a Photo Album/Viewer plugin for GB-PVR that's compatible with the recently released 0.92.8 version? Only thing I'm lacking in the PVR department at the moment...

[reven]

there "my pictures" and "pictures"

ps i dont really see how this is qualifies as a community announcement

Is there another central place where folks are supposed to announce when plugins have been updated for a particular release? I saw that there was a Plugin forum, but it appeared to be related more to support.

I didn't see that "my pictures" or "pictures" had been updated recently (perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place), and so thought I might be able to get some information as to which (if either) was compatible with the latest release.

My apologies if this is all in the wrong place.

Either one should work with the new release.

Either one should work with the new release.

But alas, it appears that My Pictures (and My Music) do not (at least on my box, they don't)

[reven]

well they work fine on mine.

I get errors in the logfile:

[sub]

Thats because the plugin you're trying to use is not supported by the 'Flat Blue - High Vis' skin. Try the default blue skin.

[reven]

its the skin you are using.

[Spartan]

negative. Actually, when using the default skin it doesn't work either. (This is the log I was getting before I downloaded the most recent Flat Blue / Hi Vis skin...)
