I'm playing around with this plugin right now and I'm actually pretty impressed (partly because I was able to install it without any problems and it works fine just out of the box).
Buncha, how are you able to put a banner smack in the middle of your thumbs? I tried
<td>#thumb#</td> <td>#thumb#</td> <td>#thumb#</td><br>
<a href=#><img border=0 src="/myimages/banner3.gif"></a><br>
<td>#thumb#</td> <td>#thumb#</td> <td>#thumb#</td>
and it fucked everything up.
