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).

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

OffRoadManiac I don't know but I am going to try. It looks great, I just hope it doesn't open a security hole and let hackers in like the one person said. :-/

Know that if you delete a member, you then have a bunch of photos assigned to "Guest" that show on the member photo page but can't be accessed. You have to go in the AdminCP and manually delete them. Since there's no username associated with them, you have to look at AL photos and just find them, it's a real pain. It's be great if there was some maintenance utility to remove all images not associated with a user or something.

When I upload a png the background turns black. It's done this to me before and I thought that I just needed to redo the render I've redone it 4 times and it still does the black background. The render went perfectly into the photopost gallery but yet still gave me problems when I tried to use imagehost.

Is there a fix for this bug?

Thank you.

I would say that its pretty much impossible that an upload script is adjusting the colors of your image.

If you use imagehost, would you be able to confirm if you have this same problem by uploading a .png file?

Thanks.

Thanks for the hack.. its very nice

I did test .png and I had no problem with it.. did not change anything on image or background

works fine here.. I have my domain xxxxxxxx.com as my text watermark and it puts it on just like it is

and deleting image, will delete file from directory
