Hey David, thanks for the great write up, really appreciate it. Just wanted to let you know the image upload and lightbox implimentation is built into an image upload module for pligg. Also another interesting feature is users can put their own adsense code in their profile which means their adsense block will show up next to their submissions, making sure in the future the top users will actually get compensated, and that's an out of the box feature on pligg.

Cheers!

haven't seen or used pligg,.. but I've just had a look at the site and correct me if I'm wrong, clicking the title link, on the individual pligg display page doesn't shoot you off to the site where the t-shirt is for sale...

clicking on the image brings a lightbox enlarged image up though there's no way to go and find a price etc from the originating site.

either it's a not very functional system, or not very usable. love the idea, hope all the bugs get ironed out.

I just found the link, surely, it should be the big title on the page, not the tiny grey subtext... the biggest link on the page is to the page itself,.. that just seems silly.

Been using Pligg for quite a while now. They seem to be using the latest build, but not the latest, which has a "bury" option. Nonetheless, another cool implementation of pligg.

Ok, I've fixed the title link issue, now if you're looking at the actual story page the main link goes to the external site.

Thanks,

Karl
