I would second that motion!!!! I would be all that I could ever hope for in the Galley,

I can't really find a down to earth galley that doesn't require too much from the admin to work and allot of fus for nothing. And the problem that I have had with most galleries (Zoom, Datso, Pony, Gallery2) With greek characters or symbols ()$ and such in the file name, using ISO-8859-7 is already taken care of by CB Gallery, I was amazed! Great work!!

Takeing a look at the Zoom Pics Module which is setup nicely, for random/newest ect. with scrolling effect, I wonder how hard it would be to "hack" the code to work with CB Gallery ?

The random image module can be done with any random image module that support the load of random images from a folder and its subfolders, you just need to point the module to the path "if default install" images/comprofiler/plug_profilegallery/
The subject is how to link that images with the profiles ... ;§

you could use a modified version of this module.
However you would have alot of issues like not displaying items that havent been approved or published, handling other fiel types, etc.

The best solution would be to write a module that uses the plugin database table to find the random item based on specific criteria.

Ok - I have started working on a CB Gallery module (see http://forge.joomla.org/sf/go/artf4813?nav=1).
I will keep this thread updated (along with my blog) about the progress of this.

BTW, please review and vote for this over at the extensions site http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,745/Itemid,35/

Thank you!
