MPDev's Graffiti Wall
 

The Graffiti Wall is a simple script where people can "paint" text onto a brick wall. You can see an example of the vB3 integration on ExtremeFitness.Com.

I also use an img src with half sized dimensions to preview the wall on my Summary page which can be seen on ViperAlley.Com; this could also be added to your portal pages for greater exposure.

Features
. Fully integrated with vB3 for styles/users
. Admin/Mods can "wipe board"
. Optional logging of paints to log file

This is a very simple mod to install; there is one self contained .php script, a few fonts and a bricks.jpg file to upload.

Requirements
. Your server must have GD2 support (GD1 support may work, but not tested) for PNG files including TTF support.

This is the updated mod from the 3.0x version located here.

Be kind and click INSTALL if you use this mod. :)

1.0.1 - 2/3/2006
. Fixed painttext issue in ZIP file

sweet hack! thanks!

nice i will install in a few. thxs

Thanks for this Hack :)

Click Install

Awesome !!!

this is awesome, its a pity we cant actually write the text/choose colors with our mouse, maybe even draw pix? :)

Warning: imagettfbbox(): Could not find/open font in /wall.php on line 117

And I'm getting this: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: imagettfbbox() in /home/nikzad0/public_html/forum/dr/wall.php on line 117

I did everything correctly, I think :surprised:

Fatal error: imagecreatefrompng(): gd-png: fatal libpng error: IDAT: CRC error in /home/httpd/vhosts/4umturk.com/httpdocs/forum/wall.php on line 94

One problem is the use of isset is not workign on all server setups as intended. Like it smacks mine into trying to update the wall everytime which I feel is what is happening to others.

heres how I fixed the blank page and timeout problem on my site


Fixed I had the variable typed wrong.


Find:
Replace with:

that kinda fixed the hanging, but now nothing writes to it when you enter some text

link and test accoutn

yes.picture ande page came now..but i can not sent the writing..

http://www.4umturk.com/forum/wall.php

an account would help ;)

user name : testuser
pass : 123456

anyone know what I did wrong ^

Post lines 30-41 please.

I also fixed the fix I posted earlier I type the variable name wrong.

Just a note to mpdev. I would not use isset becuase it wont work like you want. Since you are setting the variable to be the gpc validated info the isset for that variable will always return true. Since isset just checks to see if a variable is defined.

All the people having problems with the script never loading is becuase its sending them into an infinate loop.

ok the blank page is fixed but i cant panit anything to my wall.

thxs m8!

:(

Might have a setting wrong still any ideas.

@eXtremeTim thanks ET its all working now!

now we need a wall which you can do with your mouse :)

worked for me! thanx dude... dunno what the other problems may be for other users but one think might be the actual fonts not being uploaded in Binary... gotta check those things with fonts

There u go...! (900 px wide though, the 1024 was too wide for me)

For the life of me i cannot get this to work in 24bit PNG mode, 8bit yes, but the letters look pixelated...damn...need a blank stat!

There's no program i have that'll remove that text, i can save it and the bricks show behind (sometimes not, just all black) then i type my text, and it all comes in black... great!
