Would you rather have had XenForo 1.0.0 out now, or XenForo 1.0.0 not out yet? Because it's a very simple choice, and we chose to get out a very accomplished forum system now rather than a forum system and a cms and a gallery and a blog and a shopping cart and a portal and a butt scratcher at some indeterminate point in the future.I can't believe Mike and Kier skipped Albums considering their statement:
A compelling community experience.
Intuitive. Social. Engaging. Fast. XenForo brings a fresh outlook to forum software.
Albums should have been incorporated from the git-go.
Lack of albums only kills communities where there is nothing interesting to talk about.Lack of Albums cripples community.
Here's a start up forum without albums which hasn't done too badly: http://xenforo.com/community/Lack of Albums cripples community.
Not true. Albums is a vital tool for users to express themselves and keep others informed on his/her daily happenings. It enriches active communities. Being social is not just talk.Lack of albums only kills communities where there is nothing interesting to talk about.

I know what you are saying. I understand Gallery, CMS and Blog should not be part of the core development. But Albums is a different story. It should come natively just like attachments in forum threads. Albums in user profiles is a must for a modern social community. I totally agree with wii on that. Lack of Albums cripples community.
It doesn't represent the nature of this forum however you spin it. No offense.
I am talking about the overall community. Peggy, I know it's home for you and many others.Says who??
lol no it is not home. My home is my own forum community, or will be when I get it up and running.I am talking about the overall community. Peggy, I know it's home for you and many others.
How many new start-ups at par with XenForo you know? For a new modern social community software it's a must. The old man, vBulletin, has it built-in.What other forum software has/had albums as part of the core from the very beginning?
The "old man" has it built in yes,... but only a couple of years ago.How many new start-ups at par with XenForo you know? For a new modern social community software it's a must. The old man, vBulletin, has it built-in.
They may very well be. I have no idea.I was under impression user albums was something taken seriously here as a next feature?
We're not talking about a gallery, we're talking about the user albums.Last time I looked vB did not have a photo gallery, just some piece of crap album system.
