The best you can do using cfimageget is the 5 photos at a time. Yes, it can be done. See this in the docs for how to do it.

You can end up with double images though - since each call is completely different from the others.
Otherwise your next best hope is to work the normal PHP into the forum template. I did that with my SMF forums. Once you do that you can get five images.
There are a few examples in the docs for the php you would need to do... not sure of your forum layout though. If you want me to just do it for you, see the list of organizations you can donate to in the docs... prove you made a donation and I will go ahead and do it all.
Otherwise try the php route (getting that into the template - its all cut and paste almost, so php is not really required, just reading of the docs and trying it) and let me know where you get stuck

If I wasn't so dang broke I'd be more than happy to make a donation to you Vuud lol. As for doing it for me thanks, but I want to learn how to do this kind of stuff and that won't help me. I'll read thru the docs again and try to see if I can make sense of what I need to do. Where would be the best place to post any questions I have about this for you? Here in this forum or somewhere else? I saw how to do the five images using cfimageget, but like you said you'll get double images. If there were a large amount of pic's in the album that wouldn't be too much of a problem. But with probably no more than 5 pic's of the car each week that won't work too well.
Thanks for your help,

I feel foremost I need to clarify your statement for others... I was not asking for a donation to me, but to one of a few select charitable organizations. Just want to clarify that for future readers. I don't want your money. Well, I want you to give your money away to someone else anyway

As for your problem... Here is what I did with SMF 1.0.3 (which is not that old)
In my index.template.php file in the templates directory area (whatever template you are using, edit the one in that folder), I added in this code. You have to change the include to match your installation maybe. This would work if cpmfetch was right off the root of the web site.
echo '<div align="right">';
include "../cpmfetch/cpmfetch.php";
$objCpm = new cpm("/photos");
$objCpm->cpm_viewRandomMedia(1,5);
$objCpm->cpm_close();
echo '</div>';
Otherwise it was pretty easy. Hope the broke thing works out for you... I don't personally buy anything for myself really, grow a lot of my own food, but business is slow - so I can feel your pain. Unless of course you are broke cause you spend on all sort of non-essentials - then you deserve your pain - whahahahahahahah
