 * Hey alex, next gen is awsome. now thats done, my question.
 * I am trying to automatically fetch an image presented as a [singlepic] from a
   page, and use that elsewhere. im sure i have to use
    `pregmatch('`\[[^singlepic\]]*\]`','',
   $temp_content)` or something similar, but im not sure how to get the first number,
   then use `$image = nggdb::find_image( $image );`.
 * basically im a little lost, i was wondering if you might give me a little help,
   as using more advanced functionality wtihin templates isnt so well documented
   around the net.
 * thanks bro.
    paul.
