This modification allows you to create personalized smilies by choosing eyes, mouth and face. The smilie set that was used for the graphics is one of the most popular and beautiful ones (see screenshots). It is possible to create up to 18000 different smilies for this so hours of fun are guaranteed! Additionaly, it includes plugins for custom WOL location, so that they don't show up as unknown and a handy bbcode (bbcode example: [smilie=1,2,3]) to put those smilies in posts. There is a field in the smilie maker which displays the bbcode that should be used so that the user can copy it from there. Every action is made via javascript so that the page does not reload. It is fully phrased so translations are now a piece of cake! :)

DEMO: http://www.e-steki.com/forum/smmaker.php (http://www.e-steki.com/forum/smmaker.php?langid=1) (Note that the demo is in greek. However as there is not much text in this hack, you'll probably find your way :))

Important:You need GD enabled in your server to use this (and almost all image-creating-on-the-fly mods so you better tell them to enable it if they haven't already :p) Also this doesn't work in some forums that have the hack for transparent pngs in IE.

Installation
-1 product file which adds 5 plugins, 1 template, 4 AdminCP settings and 15 phrases.
-2 php file uploads
-1 folder with images upload
-1 small template edit
Detailed instructions are included in the accompanying zip file.

Please be kind and click INSTALL if you have installed this mod. I *can* see this you know! :p

I hope you enjoy this mod as much as I enjoyed making it :)

Changelog:
Version 1.7
-Made the tables for the eyes, mouth and face collapsible
-Added 15 more eyes, 15 more mouths and 2 more faces
-Added text to show till a smilie is made so that the user doesn't think that nothing is happening. The text disappears after the creation of the smilie.
-Fixed the bug with the preview of the BBcode.

Version 1.6
-Added AdminCP option to hide the creation buttons to guests and show a message instead
-Added AdminCP option to hide the bbcode editbox so that forums with a lot of traffic don't get a big server load from many dynamic smilies. (to completely disable the functionality though you have to disable one plugin and not perform the suggested template edit)

Version 1.5
-Added Random Smilie button
-Added bbcode like [smilie=1,2,3] to use custom smilies in posts. Beware that this may be server-intensive in big forums.
-Editbox that displays the bbcode that should be copied, which also changes with javascript instantly.
-Fully phrased now
-Template and phrase addition is done with the attached product
-Link in the smilie popup to the smilie maker
-Custom WOL locations
-A lot shorter image URL

As english is not my native language I may have done some grammar mistakes. I would really appreciate it of you reported them in this thread :)

Thanks to KW802's mod for inspiring me on how to use the javascript. :)

Translations availiable

1st installation :)

great jop

hope to see some thing else that makes write messege on these smilies

Thanks! I'm glad you find it nice! :D
(I was really exited when I had the idea, lol)

For written message you can look on KW802's mod for 3.0.7 (it works in 3.5 as well). but the faces are predefined in his mod. The only thing that changes is the text and colours of it. Maybe I could make one that combines both features but I don't have that much php knowledge at the time :) I'm a fast learner though :p

I'll see what I can do about combining it with the other Smilie Creator.

Probably it will be easy for you as the code in mine is very small and easy :)

Pleeease if you make that, include the fonts and not take them from the server so that it supports greek! :nervous:

a combination would be awesome. this is great. how would i use this without vbadvanced?

OK, challenge accepted! :p Is there a Greek truetype font?

PS: You missed one of the HTML comments. ;)

Lea Verou

11-04-2005, 01:48 AM

HHmm.... I hadn't thought about different fonts before.

OK, challenge accepted! :p Is there a Greek truetype font?

A lot but only some work with gd as I noticed. However all the preinstalled fonts in windows work with GD AND greek so something like comic sans ms, times, arial etc would work.
I can send you some. However the good thing of not taking the fonts from the server is that the user can change them so that he can put whatever he wants. For example in MpDev's graffiti wall it needed only an iconv() function to convert the sent values to UTF-8 and the replacement of the graffiti fonts of the package with greek ones.
So this way it would support any given language I guess ;) You don't need to specifically make it work with greek ;)
However I don't know how it would be possible to make the box be resized to fit the writing if the user had changed the font... I tried to change the code of your existing hack to support greek (with the help of a friend of mine that knows php very well) and the box was messed up and he told me that it needed lots of coding to make it resize corrtectly... :confused:

PS: You missed one of the HTML comments. ;)


Woops you catched me! :nervous::o lol
Yep, I started from your template but I erased most of the stuff there so that I only had the module shell and some similar things and also I took a look of how the javascript worked to understand how I should make mine, is that bad? You can see that there aren't many similarities ;) Also the php file is completely different... I hope you aren't accusing me of stealing because of some html comments! :speechless:

KW802

.... is that bad? You can see that there aren't many similarities ;) Also the php file is completely different... I hope you aren't accusing me of stealing because of some html comments! :speechless:I was pretty happy with myself the night I figured out how to get the image to refresh without a page load so if somebody else was able to make use of that code then even cooler. :cool:

Going back to the fonts though... I'll have to experiment to see I come up with. I've never really worked with non-Latin fonts before so it'll be a learning experience for me. Did your friend keep any of his experimental changes? I'd be curious to see how far he got.

Yep, I have the changed php file but I have it in a backup DVD as I had to format the pc due to a problem it had and if I start searching for the backup DVD at 6 in the morning the people in the house will yell at me :p :p :p
So, I'll send it to you tomorrow :) How should I send it? PM, e-mail or posting it here? :)
I remember that it worked nicely with greek but the box was bigger than it should be :confused:

I'll send you a PM with an email address. I'll tackle in a two-step process.... (1) get sign maker version working with Greek and then (2) combine the sign maker code with this new code.

I love new challenges. :D

Ok!
If you need any graphics for it don't hesitate to ask me :)

I love new challenges a lot too but if they aren't very far from my abilities and this one is as I only started learning php some days ago :nervous:

Lea Verou

11-04-2005, 02:30 AM

I almost figured out how to make it work without vbadvanced! I hear an update coming... :p

Lea Verou

11-04-2005, 02:50 AM

Now availiable for users without vbadvanced.
Also fixed an file error in the zip which made the mod unusable as there was no e-steki_smilie_creator folder to upload to smilies as the instructions stated. I'm forgetful, I know :p

Installed the non vbadvanced version :-

"you do not have permission to access this page" .. where are the permission settings ?

That's really weird cause... there are no permission settings!
Are you sure you were pointing to the correct url? It's www.yourdomain.com/forums/smmaker.php

Anyway, I did this too fast due to demand and is very possible I overlooked something... I'll have a look when I fix something in the look of the template. :)
I'll send an update when I sort those issues out :)

Sorry .. must have been deleting post as you posted .. problem solved.
Had initially installed the vba version and not set permissions for the new page.

I tried both and I get a red x instead of the created smilie. :(

Lea Verou

I tried both and I get a red x instead of the created smilie. :(

Can you right click the red X and paste here the url that the browser is searching to find the image in? :)

Btw the zip file of the non-vba version is now updated to contain a slightly better template (see screenshots)
Also now the screenshots are from an english, default version of vbulletin :)

It's correct... Are you sure you have GD enabled in your server? :)

Yes, I do.

Lea Verou

11-04-2005, 03:57 AM

Yes, I do.

Version? I'm not sure but I think it requires 1.6 or more for some of the functions used...

If you go at the image's url you'll see a bunch of php warnings.
The problem is that the script for some reason, cannot use the images and all the other warnings come from that issue. What I can't determine is WHY it cannot open the images... It could be a fault chmod but since I can see them they are readable and do exist. :confused:
I'll think about it more and post when I think something that could be causing this apart from an old gd version... Btw I know there are more important issues about the smilie maker than looks but there is a template update, you are having the old template :)

TJFweb

11-04-2005, 04:03 AM

What's the difference between: vba e steki smilie creator.zip and smmaker.zip?

I tried both but both are for vbadvanced (which I don't have)...

I think I'll wait for the vBulletin standalone version.

Lea Verou

11-04-2005, 04:06 AM

ermm smmaker is supposed to be for boards without vbadvanced... Did I forget to change the readme?

no, no, no, i meant on the toilet (http://www.karawynn.net/mishacat/toilet.html). so i can save money on litter.

but the one thing i can't seem to figure out is how to make the cat flush the toilet...? :ermm:

It seems that it works in some sites and not in others... I have to find why... :confused:
When you say that it doesn't work at all? It shows the template, right? You just don't see the image? Can you paste the url of the "image" please or tell the url so I can test it out?

That's pretty self-explanatory I guess... I think you should ask your host for that since it's a server problem :(

The other warnings are caused by only 3 of the first ones similar to the one I quoted. Since the file doesn't load, each time the script uses the variable that contains it's contents you get an error ;)

You know what would be great? If users could create a smilie and have it save on the server so that it appears in their smilie panel to the right when posting a message.

Alternatively, it would be great if the Javascript could also output the appropriate [IMG] tags for the smilie so a user can just copy and paste the code to put in a post. You could even put a 'Copy [IMG] code' button there which would copy the appropriate code to the user's clipboard, saving them from having to highlight the code and click copy.

If you had enough users making their own smiles, that might be a lot of smilies on the server. I think this hack is more for Admins to make smilies for their site than for users, or am I wrong? ;)

Alternatively it could just save the dynamic image code (perhaps it could be made a little shorter?) to a MySQL table and then display it in the user's smilie panel.

There could even be a Control Panel page where users could see the smilies they've created, choose to display them in their smilie panel, or choose to delete them.

Suggestions, suggestions ;) I think those are good ideas though.

Edit: Whoa how have I possibly been on this board for four years now... :S

But if you have enough users making smilies, they could add up really quickly and bloat the db.

And only 91 posts? ;)

Depends on how many smilies a user can make. It can always be limited. For a medium sized board I think it's entirely sustainable, so long as we don't have to store the entire smilie URL that the current Smilie Maker outputs. The code could probably be easily edited to output much more abbrieviated URLs than it currently does.

And yes, at 91 posts in 4 years I am a world class lurker ;)

@ yinyang - I had a siamese seal point that never used a cat box always a toilet.

@ Coders -
- this is great for a "webtool" to make smiles. People can save to their desktop and use for whatever.

Hack idea / add-on - I am just brain storming (no thought to yes / no / maybe so)

Make an AdminCP ver
* once the smile is made you have a choice to save the smile in a $path (set somewere)
* Before you save take your finished Smile and add it to the database.

Title
Text to Replace
Smilie File Path
Smilie Category
Display Order

EX: layout forum to add to say the bottem of the page of the finished smile.
/admincp/image.php?do=add&table=smilie

You know what would be great? If users could create a smilie and have it save on the server so that it appears in their smilie panel to the right when posting a message.

As I said in my first post one can create up to 6000 different smilies. Imagine if all these were stored in your server including a bbcode shortcut for each smilie! Also, why would a user have a different smilie panel than others since they will see the smilie anyway? ;)

Lea Verou

11-04-2005, 02:28 PM

nevermind
whats the link for the smilies page supposed to look like ?

It's in the readme file, did you read the instructions? ;)
In the non-vba version it will look like www.yoursite.com/forum/smmaker.php.
In the vba version it depends on the page identifier you have set and on an on another setting (which I don't currently remember how it's called). If you have vbadvanced you should be able to create a custom page and know the link for it! :rolleyes:

You could even put a 'Copy [IMG] code' button there which would copy the appropriate code to the user's clipboard, saving them from having to highlight the code and click copy.

I have thought of that and yes it would be great BUT: The link to the image would be dynamic. e-steki_smilie_creator.php would have to be called to create the image each time a user sees that smilie in the post causing a huge server load, especially in big forums... I don't know exactly how bad that would be for the server (anyone that does?) but yes, I would like that feature a lot too. Oh, also note that if you choose not to care about the poor server (:p) and use such smilies in a post then be sure to have dynamic images enabled in vbulletin options :)
If anyone uses these let me know if the forum went any slower. I I figure out it's not THAT heavy for the server, it's certain I'll put such a feature in. :)

Make an AdminCP ver
* once the smile is made you have a choice to save the smile in a $path (set somewere)
* Before you save take your finished Smile and add it to the database.

Title
Text to Replace
Smilie File Path
Smilie Category
Display Order

I like this idea! :D
I would like to hear if there's any demand though... :)

If you go to the image url you'll see the following error:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@thugonline.net and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

So I guess, it's a server problem? See the server error log... :)

Same with Gizmo5h1t3 (http://member.php?u=107529). The html code is different in you guys than in the other members that don't have the problem. See for example an img tag from Allan's module:

<img src="http://www.phylosophia.com/forum/images/smilies/e-steki_smilie_creator/eyes/6.png" alt="" border="0">

And one from Gizmo5h1t3:
<img src="http://www.gobshites.org/board/images/spacer.png" style="width: 0; height: 0; filter: progid:D
XImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader
(src='http://www.gobshites.org/board/images/smilies/e-steki_smilie_creator/eyes/6.png',

As I said in my first post one can create up to 6000 different smilies. Imagine if all these were stored in your server including a bbcode shortcut for each smilie! Also, why would a user have a different smilie panel than others since they will see the smilie anyway? ;)

- We could limit each user to having 5-10 custom smilies stored for their account. If on average every user had 3 smilies, even if 1000 users used the smilie maker it wouldn't be so bad.

- The idea behind having a different smilie panel per user would be due to users probably not wanting to have other peoples' smilies cluttering their edit window.

These are just suggestions, but I think that this modification has a lot of potential. Currently it isn't *really* integrated into vbulletin.

The smiley creator works with Transparent PNG files in IE (server side solution). I've just tested it.

Nice hack :) But are we forced to attach a created smiley to use it in a message ? Can't it be save in the server with telling user the link to get it ?

If you saw my above post, the new version will include new features and one of them will be a bbcode installed via a plugin which would enable the users to use custom smilies in their posts. Also, a link will be displayed in the smilie popup window to the smilie maker so that if the user doesn't find a suitable image there he can just create one and copy the bbcode from the editbox ;)
And since I'll make that plugin I'll also probably add the phrases at this point and make it all a product :)
btw the vba version will be discontinued. There is no point having it as it can be made as a page anyway, with the classic vba way ;)

PS: sorry for my english, I make lots of mistakes when I get too exited :p

I tried installing it on my local dev box, but it didn't want to work there, my dev box is a clone of my coloed box so that's strange, because on the online box it works just fine, but not on localhost.

Thanks, this can be endless fun.

Oh just an idea, but if there was an admincp part where we could add our own 'eyes/lips/face' images, imagine the possibillities hehe.

Thanks for your kind words :)
I've seen before that it doesn't work in the localhost, no clue why :confused:
You can always replace some of the images with yours. Also if you know how to handle templates you can easily add more eyes/mouths/faces without altering a single thing in the php code or in the javascript. It just needs basic html skills and observation. :)

There is no point having it as it can be made as a page anyway, with the classic vba way ;)For the BB code, make sure that people understand that by generating the image on the fly every time the page loads that their server could take a performance hit if the forum is a high-volume site. That's one of the reasons why I resisted doing that for the sign maker version and instead started exploring ways of saving the image to the server first and then linking to the saved version instead of generating a new one every time. ... For vBa, the original thought process behind that one was to make it easier to manager which usergroups had access to it. :)

Nope but why would you restrict any usergroup apart from guests to seiing this?
There is that setting for guests which I think is better than completely restricting them to view the page, banned users can't see the forum so they can't view this either...
So what's the use of having usergroup permissions? :)

Hi just installed it, its working but a few things:

1 - If i click to preview a post before posting, the smilie code is not translated
2 - By default your creator loads in the same window as the smilie manager (which is a small javascript popup) - I had to add a target="_blank" to the create link
3 - and how big is a forum which shouldn't use this due to server load?
4 - oh yeah, and the modules folder doesn't exist so it needs to be created (this is unclear in the instructions)

Thanks for installing, I hope your users like it :)

1. This is because the plugin for the bbcode is in a postbit hook locations so it parses the bbcode only when it's posted. Thanks for pointing it out, will be fixed in the next version :)
2. Also a correct point. There is also the solution of making the smilie popup initially bigger but it's a messy solution. I'll add the target="_blank" in the readme of the next version. Thanks again :)
3. I don't know exactly. My forum has about 650 members and it seems very ok. I guess you'll know you're big enough when you notice a performance slowdown. It also depends on how many users are using it. :)
4. It existed in my test forum which had almost no hacks so I thought it would exist in others too. I'll put a notice in the next version's readme :)

Well its only been on a little while and already everyone is so happy :D hehe....

I had one more question, if in the future it does slow down too much, so i remove it - will the posts be littered with [smilie] links, or will they stay hidden?

Oh and would it be possible to remove the page from the modules folder, I don't like creating folders unless necessary?

Oh if you remove the page from the modules directory you have to change the URL in the template (in a javascript function). I don't remember the url of that php file being used anywhere else but my memory isn't very good :p
It was originally created only or vbadvanced users and this is why there is that strange "modules" thing still there. I was too lazy to change it :p Maybe I will put it in the images folder in the next version :)
About the bbode, that a nice question! I'll test it in my test forum and see what happens if I disable the plugin and I'll try to include something better about that in the next version.
Thanks a lot for your comments, they are really useful! :)

3 people uninstalled the past 2 days. Can't you at least tell me what's wrong? :(

I'm still installed... Not having any problems here ;-)

Can I suggest a few things for future versions?
- More smilie graphics, i.e. eyes, mouth, face. How about hands / items?
- Have you seen the application that allows you to customise the text on a sign that the smilie is holding? If these two could come together then it would most definitely be the ultimate smilie maker out there.

-Don't you think it would get stuffed if I put more images there? It's way too big already...
Anyway those eyes/mouths are stripped from the original smilies of that set that I could find so I don't have any more to strip their eyes and mouth from :nervous:
-KW802 said in above posts that he will combine those two. I believe though that if it was like that it would become more specific and users would be able to use them on special occasions (a smilie holding a sign doesn't fit anywhere, right? ;) ). Also, there would always be those "smartass" users that would post their whole post in a smilie and put the smilie instead of text cause they will think it's "cool" therefore causing serverload.
-I had also thought of hands/items and it's a good idea. However I'll have to save all the images again at a larger size and find enough items to add. It would be no use if we only had like 3 items, would it? ;) And I don't want to put ugly stuff from other smilie sets as items, I'm quite picky with looks :p

If you read the whole thread then you wouldn't have that question. Just create the folder.

About bandwidth, I guess it's the same as a normal png 8-bit smilie of that size. When I say "server load" I am not referring to bandwidth but to CPU usage.

Anyway, if you install it, please click the appropriate button ;)

Are you taking suggestions? How about a way to upload more custom images and add them to the default set via the AdminCP?

Installed by the way, brilliant modification I love it, very popular with my users. Only bit that confused me was adding to modules folder, might be worth saying you have to create it if it doesn't exist for stupid users like me :D

Yes I am taking suggestions but I can't make them all, even if they are nice ideas. I am not a php guru! :)
How do you imagine your suggestion working? I didn't fully understand what you suggested. :o
Since you like that modification that much, please click install!
I have said before that in the next version I'll update the readme or even move the file to the images of smilies folder if that won't affect the existing ones in the board (which I don't think it will as they are created each time they are viewed).
However I'm currently working on another hack so I don't think the update will be very soon. That's not certain however. It could be out in a day. It depends on if I feel like coding the new hack or the update of this at a time. :nervous:

Well you have some default smilie parts that come with the package, but what if you want to add some faces or eyes of your own? I was thinking of an easy way to do so, like via the AdminCP for instance. Your upload your smilie part, and then it is added to the list of parts you can use in the Smilie Customiser.

It was just something that came to mind, that's all. It's one of my favourite mods just as it is :)

Then click that button!
I can't understand some of you people. We offer our work for free and all we ask is just a click in that INSTALL button. It doesn't cost you anything but yet you don't do it.
I just can't understand how the mind of some people works... :(

I would really like to include animated graphics but that needs Imagemagick installed in the host. How many people do have that installed? I don't think there are many... :(

Oh and if they are included they will be from the same set that this smilie maker is made from. It's the only set I really really like :)

Ehmm the hack author can see if the user has clicked install cause it's written on the postbit if he has. Anyway I see that you did now :) You hadn't clicked install though when I made that post.

I click install when I first download a mod, I uninstalled it when I couldn't find the modules folder :p, forgot to reinstall. My apologies :nervous:

Wouldn't it be possible to just choose to disable animated parts from the AdminCP? Just stop them showing up if you don't have Imagemagick? I think you'd be surprised how many people do have it installed, although it depends what version you need. vB 3.5 needs Imagemagick 6 and I'm not up to that yet :(

It will also include more eyes/mouths (and perhaps faces) in addition to the other features it will contain :)
New features will also include a text that will show till the smilie loads (eg "Smilie is being made - Please wait") and a fix for the preview bug. :)

Progress
-Preview bug...Fixed (added 2 more plugins)
-Mesage while the smilie is being created...Complete (added one more phrase)
-Creating extra mouths,faces,eyes...Complete (final number of images for this version: 45 eyes, 40 mouths and 10 faces (also touched up an existant face)
-Editing template to adapt the new number of particles...Done
-Editing tables to make them collapsable...Done
-Making version ready to be posted here...Done.

bashy try deactivating the SEO hacks and the rewrite url one and tell me if it gets solved.

N8 yes it will. I forgot to update the version :)

01-09-2006, 08:05 PM

Hi there, is it possible to get the faces pngs with real alpha blending for use on dark backgrounds also? Because they show some not so nice white borders on left and right top and bottom of the faces picture if you view them on a darker background. Attached image is self-explaining.

I just felt like I would show this off. It took me a few solid days of work to modify this, but it was necessary on our forums as we use the old vb2 style of smilies. While changing it, I felt it would be nice to include a lot more options as well as an additional Eyebrow category for that extra touch. You can see some of the examples too, 74 out of over 57 million possibilities. :)

But nice nevertheless...

Wow! Good job there MooMan! :D
It must've taken ages!

01-11-2006, 08:05 PM

AFAIK GD doesn't go well with alpha transparency :(
Internet Explorer also hates it :(

You can find some real nice code snippets for working with alpha transparency on www.php.net function list (in the comments to the functions) :)

I just felt like I would show this off...

Is there a way to get some of your faces images. Im running the forum on a dark background, which would match perfectly.

Lea Verou

01-11-2006, 08:19 PM

Thanks, I didn't know such functions existed. However I'm too busy these days (months?) for coding...

Also, even if he gives you the faces images they have to be the correct size (even if that means just some transparent space). You have to understand how the smilie maker works. If you understand it then customization is really simple :)

shiva

01-11-2006, 09:08 PM

First off, very cool. :)

What i think would be better, and something I would like to do, is add a direct link to the maker that opens a second window to the maker while using the posting editor, so people can make their smilie at the same time as they are posting, so they can copy and paste the code directly into their post.

How would I be able to do this? Not sure which templates would be needed to modify. Just a direct link where the smilie's are displayed would work fine. (Including the drop down menu as well) This should then be fine for PM's etc as well. :)

Oh, and quick reply I guess.

Pretty fun though. :D

Lea Verou

01-11-2006, 09:13 PM

I did that in my forum if I understood you correctly but I don't remember which template it was. I'll look and tell you :)

shiva

01-11-2006, 10:46 PM

Thanks, don't speak Greek, so couldn't see. :)

I should remember it, but the insane amount of templates VB uses gets you confused sometimes. :(

Lea Verou

01-11-2006, 10:54 PM

You should change the editor_smiliebox template.
Here's mine:

<if condition="$show['smiliebox']">
<fieldset id="{$editorid}_smiliebox" title="$vbphrase[smilies]">
<legend>$vbphrase[smilies]</legend>
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center">
$smiliebits
<if condition="$show['moresmilieslink']">
<tr>
<td class="smallfont" colspan="$vboptions[smcolumns]">[<a href="#" onclick="vB_Editor['$editorid'].open_smilie_window(smiliewindow_x, smiliewindow_y); return false" title="<phrase 1="$vboptions[smtotal]" 2="$totalsmilies">$vbphrase[showing_x_smilies_of_y_total]</phrase>">$vbphrase[more]</a>]</td>
</tr>
<div class="smallfont"><a href="$vboptions[bburl]/smmaker.php" target="_blank">$vbphrase[smmaker_smiliepopup]</a></div>
</if>
</table>
</fieldset>
<else />
<div id="smiliebox" style="display:none"></div>
</if>

Has anyone got the same smilie pack/faces for boards using dark skins?

MooMan65

01-16-2006, 08:34 PM

Is there a way to get some of your faces images. Im running the forum on a dark background, which would match perfectly.I've attached my face pack which you can use jacob. Pick the ones you want. :) Remember, if you end up wanting to use more than what's normally in the hack, you'll have to modify the template to include the higher numbers. I had to do that plenty of times. :p

One note: My image size is different from the normal hack's size, optimised for the rest of my images, so you'll most likely need to adjust your other face parts to fit on these properly. ;)

01-16-2006, 08:57 PM

thx a lot

shiva

01-16-2006, 09:06 PM

Actually, I noticed something with this, and had to switch it off because of it. It doesn't reconize permissions and usergroups. Even though I am a admin, when I go to the page, it shows me as a guest (register username/password shows up)

A member logged in using that, and totally buggered up his status for the rest of the board, he had to log out and relog back in. Any ideas on how to fix this?
