Announcement" The coppermine addon for PHP-Nuke recently lost its support and 
continuing development from the originating authors. Because of this, Pc-Nuke! looked 
for support throughout the web, but found none. So... Pc-Nuke! has created a location for 
support & development of "Coppermine for PHP-Nuke" program. 

This does not mean Pc-Nuke! is going to become the developer of this program now, just a part
of the greater community for "Coppermine for PHP-Nuke". Anyone interested in the continuing 
development of this ADDON should contact us through our "Menu/Support/Contact section on our 
website listed below. Anyone who makes changes to this module, please send those changes to 
Pc-Nuke! so we can incorp them into the latest version release. Pc-Nuke! considers this
program a "Continuing Community Involved" project.

Note: Do not confuse the contents of "Coppermine for PHP-Nuke" releases/upgrades with the 
stand alone version releases. This program is currently on its own path of development.

This Module Addon IS ONLY FOR PHPNUKE 5.5 and up ! 
For problems and support, go into the New Forum:  
http://www.max.pcnuke.com/modules.php?name=Forums
