Major Additions - VB image Hosting

VB Image Hosting Version 1.0.1

This is the port for my hack to vb 3.6.x
check it for vb 3.5.x here

A New installer replaced the old one so you should not face any problems with database

NOTE :
People who were using vbimghost in vb 3.5.x and moved to vb 3.6.0 MAKE sure that you have vbimghost 1.4.1 Since this port will only support upgrading from that ver only
People who do a fresh install use this ver.

Requirements:

1. requires GD 2.0.1 or later (2.0.28 or later is recommended).
2. PHP ver 4.3.x or later (newer ver is better).

NOTE:
before you post any error here :
Set that path to your forums correctly in the vbimghost options.
if you getting the error ""supplied argument is not a valid"
that's because you didn't set the path correctly

And for all the people asking when is the next release it will be in 2007 not this month .. due to some problems in real life ..

AzH, this is what I don't seem able to find; in the Usergroup Manager I can set upload slots & max number of files allowed to upload on a usergroup basis - but I can't see how to override these settings for some individual users. Could you please be more explicit?

Hi,
Thanks for this great hack!
I have some questions/suggestions.

1) Can the users provide a caption for their pics besides showing the names?
2) The bb and html links are not useful to most users, can those be removed or at least an option provided whether we want to show them or not?
3) Would it be possible for other members to provide feedback on the pics that a member posts, in the form of scraps that are publicly seen by everyone?

I'm getting an error when trying to upload an image. It's a 300k gif image and falls withing the guildlines I set for max filesize, height, and width, but it times out and gives me this error:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/USERNAME/public_html/forums/includes/vbimghost_include.php on line 46

I just uploaded a smaller picture with no issues. Any ideas on what's going on?


ALSO: Does the watermark not work with animated gifs?

[xproductionz]

you planning on making an add-on to add a random picture filstrip thingy at the top of the forum.. like right underneath the menu bar area?

[Pacman15]

Don't know if this is the support thread also but I'm having this error when I want to Rebuild thumbnails.

Warning: getimagesize(/home/user/public_html/forums/imagehosting/145ab6f8de458c.jpg) [function.getimagesize]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /admincp/vbimghost.php on line 279

Does anyone knows what this is?

Thanks

Pacman,

The only way I got rid of that message was to uninstall the whole mod and then re-install the latest.

Im eagerly awaiting the next release that should have lots of new features!!

Is there anyway I can get the link in the navbar to disapear for guests or people not logged in to make it harder to find?

I posted this in the 3.5.4 thread as well by accident.
