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 ..

Thanks again for the fine hack

Is there anyway to make it so that administrators or super mods don't have limitations on their upload count? We use this feature to upload tutorial images so the above class of users can really stack up image counts. As it sits now we have to raise the bar for all users every time we hit the limits for individual users which isn't exactly what we had in mind.

Ok I downgraded my php and now everything is working fine.

It seems the latest php version is still bugged as it was causing other strange problems.

For referance it was 5.2.1

Love this hack, works great, and no errors, for the most part.

It works great for me, and most of my users. However for some reason, some users cannot see the images when they are posted on the forum. I know that this is not a browser setting, because when they log in with a different account they see the images fine.

One of my Admins for example, is having this problem. He cannot see the images in a post, if he edits the post(with out making any changes) then they show up fine I don't think it has anything to do with the user group settings either, as we are in the same user group, and I don't have any problems

Am I the only one who has run into this? Does anyone have a clue what might cause this?

Other than that this hack is great, and I love it. Thanks
