i see. thanks for clearing that up ^^

I don’t think so and, by the way, I just deleted your gallery plug-in from my installation. I won’t be using your products anymore.

The issue at hand is that i for one did not make the connection which of my plug-ins send that notification. It would’ve been common courtesy to at least announce which plug-in send the “offending” message. (e.g. ‘You receive this one time only announcement because we, $yournamehere, developers of $yourplugin, just released a new product which we think you might like.’)

I for one will be wary of your products from now on.

i was also affected by the safe mode restrictions

fixed it by the following:

added to /config.php

define('WP_TEMP_DIR', '/my/writable/dir');

removed trailingslashit() from /wp-admin/includes/file.php
line 75
now looks like this:

function get_temp_dir() {
	if ( defined('WP_TEMP_DIR') )
		return $WP_TEMP_DIR;

maybe code needs to be fixed there in the next update
