(Admins) Posting exe files
 
So I've been making this program (for Windows) which automatically generates the main statusicons (forum, thread etc.) from a images which the user provides (they provide the separate elements of the images, if you like), and then the program combines them appropriately. I was wondering if such a program would be okay to post on vB.org once it's done?

The reason I am asking is that on some forums which I have been to, the rules state that exe files should not be posted.

Thanks!

Put it in a zip?

Even in a zip i doubt it would be allowed. AFAIK vB.org has always only allowed visible source, so no compiled or encoded work.

This is correct.

What if I were to post the source code, too, would that make any difference?

BSMedia 08-22-2011 03:09 PM

Doubt it, since they wouldn't be able to know if anything was added or subtracted when it was compiled?

Yeah fair enough - guess I'll just have to put something in my signature or something. Thanks for your help!

Exactly!

Well, I guess he could post the source code along with instructions on how to compile, no? It sounds like a handy mod for some people.
