This vBulletin 4 product imports external images in your posts from external servers or paths into a specific path, normally your forum's image folder.

Differently than the previous product Image Cache for vBulletin 3.x., it parses the posts at regular intervals for new images and replaces the external references in the background. Also, instead of using only a single folder, it creates folders for years and months, making it much easier to handle large quantities of images. The source and destination image URL's are stored into database, too, avoiding unnecessary duplicates.

It moves and optionally converts images from one place to another. It is a handy tool in order to keep your images local to your forums.

Version 1.0.4 is temporarily in BETA stage until the users have confirmed the newly requested features.
Version 1.0.5 is still in BETA stage. It adds a new bunch of additional features, one of which allows you to test your mathematical understanding ... and a few other to fine-tune CURL and socket timeouts, and resizing on the fly of too large images. If you don't know what these options do, please leave them at their default values.

For some reason this mod struggles with importing images from photobucket. This one would not import for example: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1.../IMG_7359R.jpg

This may well be. Importing from a few sites has always been a problem, for example all those which block hot linking over time, or those which require to login. But it also has been proven not to work with too restrictive server settings, such as memory and timeout issues.

So no way to get this to work for that image?

It isn't the server...

I'd like to suggest a feature for a future release:

Import the image into a profile album of the post owner.

Yes. But it needs your own system to move the files from the forums to another place and quite some extra settings which you should first try in a test bed. If you search for fsftp or ftpfs in this thread, you'll get some ideas how to do this.

Please, help-me!!

My images stopped being imported, or rather they are imported but they are in my FTP with nomenclature: 3391.attach.pl_cached not 3391.imgcache

How can I do to fix this?
