Works like I expected.. but... a little to well... I dont want it to resize my signature images..... Is there anyway around this or set it to a diff max width for signature images?

Has anyone tested this on 3.0.7 ? I could do with a mod like this if it autosizes images and opens up full size image once clicked.

I am running it on 3.0.7 myself.... but ... I need it to not resize my signature images :(... No one out there know how to keep it from it?? please....

Is there anyway to modify this hack so that if the image is too big the system simply does not allow the IMG tag but instead uses the URL tags?

That way the poster will in time, learn that large images are not acceptable. This works better than simply altering the image 'size' because the size of the image interms of bytes actually remains the same - and this is what we don't want, people on non-broadband connections having to wait ages for threads to load.

I was using a hack on phpbb that display an 'OOPS' image whenever an IMG was posted that was too big - the OOPS image was clickable to the actual image. The processing was done on the upload not on each 'view' so kept server load to a minuium.

Sorry if I've gone off topic a bit!

is this work with attachment image also?

Great hack - does exactly what I need it to do!!! Running it on 3.0.7 - Thanks :D

Too bad support for this hack seems nill.....

I am still waiting on a reply about it not altering Signature images...

Takes an EXTREMELY long time to load any pages where this hack comes into effect. vB 3.0.7

Thanks for a great hack Steve!

I, like everyone else, experience the delay when remote images are resized. I would like to make a suggestion I found incorporated into similar hack for phpBB. The author assigned "ids" to remote images that were resized and stored the resize information in the database. By doing so, images only loaded slow the first time. Afterwards, the images would load at typical speeds because the orginal and new sizes were already stored in the database. If the table became bloated, it could simply be purged without effecting the linked images and the process would continue. I used this on a phpBB site and it made a dramatic impact on load times. I don't know if this can be incorporated into this hack, but if your interested here is a link to the MOD.....Limit Image Width

Steve,

This hack saved us a lot of trouble thanks so much!! It's working perfectly. I do have a question however. At the end of your install notes you say:

"That's it. Set the max_imagesize at the beginning of the each of the large edits and that will be your max image size."

Where can I set the max_imagesize?
