@Yardbird:

The only benefit is having one user base instead of two.  The bridge just allows Coppermine to use SMF's user base so your members don't have to re-register on your Coppermine site.  If you don't plan on allowing people to upload pictures/files to your Coppermine gallery, or restricting access to certain albums, then you don't really need to bridge the two together.

It's true that most people don't have access to LDAP today, but at least it's an existing standard that allows extensible user records to be stored/retreived in a secure way and that's a lot of what people seem to be asking for at the moment.

There are Open Source LDAP systems around and it probably wouldn't be too difficult to build a simple MySQL based LDAP-lite (if you can have a Lite Lightweight system!) for people who don't want the complexity of setting up a huge installation.

Coppemine comes with a bridge file that works with SMF.  It allows Coppermine to use your SMF users instead of the system that Coppermine uses by default.  Then it's just a matter of designing a Coppermine theme that matches your SMF theme.  Check out my site, I use SMF and Coppermine together.  The only limitation right now is the inability to use SMF's SSI.php file from within Coppermine, but the next release fixes that.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean.  If you are talking about the mod I made that displays the latest images, the SSI version is much better.  You might want to download the version I posted on my site - I made some changes to the original code to improve it.
