Can I also request a couple extra features ^^

1. captcha - To ensure a use does not make a bot to download the image over and over to waste my bandwidth on the site, this will make each user who goes to download the image, to verify they are human first (kinda similar to rapidshare ^^ )

2. A count down time, which can be set from the admincp per usergroup, eg. this usergroup can be 10 seconds, this usergroup can be 60 seconds, this usergroup can be no count down timer etc. (kind of similar to rapidshare ^^ )

These 2 extra features integrated into this modification would defantly get my vote for mod of the month!

i second that.. please add these features

Making people register to download attachments is a good way to benefit from hotlinking. You gain registration, hits, advertisement clicks, and sometimes good members.

Also the way to prevent the style from displaying on the attachments page is simple. Either use hooks to edit it out via a plugin or just perform a template edit and use a conditional to not display it on the attachments page.

Is there any way to do the opposite?

I've searched high and low for a way to get urls from:

forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=3846&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1 295480296

to:
forums/attachment/3/8/4/6/image_name.jpg

Like I said, I have tried searching maybe I'm not using the best keywords but this thread/mod was the closest I get. :(

It would defiantly be fantastic if this could be upgraded to work with VB4.

Does anything like this exist for VB4?
