Time for another poll. Smile

As you may know, we have Coppermine Gallery installed and integrated into our forum software. This is the thing that pops up when you click on "Gallery" up top, and it's what feeds the "Recent Images" box below the recent threads.

However, everything Coppermine Gallery can do can also be done by MediaWiki, with the advantage that MW has revision control, page protection, etc. My idea is to get rid of the Coppermine Gallery and move all of the images to our wiki. I'll install an extension for MediaWiki that will make a fancy gallery view of images on the wiki when you click on "Gallery" in the header of the forum. The only thing we lose is the Recent Images feed (tagging can be done through the image comments, which is nice because it's also searchable). What we gain is one place for all images to be stored and linked, which also lets people more easily link images to their wiki pages.

Please vote and post your thoughts in the thread. This poll will run for 10 days.
