i think this is to do with some pics going into the image archive and others going into the main galleries - also be aware that images loaded to the main galleries wont go straight in as they will be subject to moderation (and some may be rejected) - if you just want to load them into threads put them in the forum images bit of the image archive - which is essentially unmoderated and images will go straight in.

I also find it helpful to have two browser windows open - one on the gallery and one on the forum when pasting bb codes accross - be sure to tick "stay logged in" on the forum window tho or you may time out while viewing the gallery.
