Thanks, I am familiar with the gallery tags, but I was trying make this
automatic for my members. Maybe I will look into an extension.

Well, only categories have the magic property of being generated from a
"what links here" list; other pages have to be changed to add content to
them. So there's nothing you can do to an image which will make it
appear on anything other than a category. Instead, you'll just have to
add an image gallery to your userpage (or wherever) and update it
yourself - you might want to use the special <gallery> tags:
