OK, found the current way of getting this to work.
- Take the inc.features.php file in photopost and re-name it to inc.features2.php
- uncomment lines 25 and 26, filling out your photopost database info
- edit line #32 to 1 (so it displays one column vertically in your sidebar)
- remove this (starting at line # 146)
if ( $ViewPerm[$pcat] == 1 )
{
continue;
}
- uncomment line #238 (#235 after you remove the above
) and fill out your threads database info - remove this section (to keep from having 2 titles for the custom island):
<thead>
<tr>
<td class="tcat" colspan="$columns" align="center">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('featurepal');"><img id="collapseimg_featurepal" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_featurepal].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
Featured Photos
</td>
</tr>
</thead>
- upload to your photopost directory
- add this code to your custom portal island box (updating the path at the top)
/* PHP CODE HERE */
include('/var/yourpathto/gallery/inc_features2.php');
/* BODY HERE */
$body = <<<EOF
$photopostfeature
EOF;
voila! It should be working

I see them fine in mozilla, but not in IE
