Anything's possible. The issue is modifying the forum's software too much. I like to keep the vBulletin installation current as security patches are released. I don't like to do too much that will make that any more cumbersome. The vBulletin templating system is much better than the old phpBB software in that regard though.

One thought might be to add a custom Post Icon that one could toggle to indicate a TR with pics or videos included. That's any easy addition and a good way to flag such threads. Thoughts? Of course, there is some reliance on members to actually use the feature...

BTW, moving to feedback.
