...I just installed Imagehost 1.4.1 and see now that Vbulletin has released it's 3.6.0 version.

Can I upgrade to Vbulletin 3.6 without affecting Vbimghost 1.4.1,

Can I leave Vbimghost 1.4.1 installed when I do the 3.6 upgrade??

hmmmm, seems to be better, i turned off thumbnail & watermark
What does the thumbnail option do? is that for posting thumbnail images?

edit: ok, it's definately the watermark... any suggestion on how to fix?

edit2: ok, seems to lower the quality even with the text watermark...

Found the problem
it's only happens with Jpeg files

to fix this
Open vbimghost_include.php ( which is under the include folder )

find

imagejpeg($img,$imgdir."/".$imgname);

and replace it with

imagejpeg($img,$imgdir."/".$imgname,100);

beautiful thanks so much!!

This looks fantastic. I'm a photopost customer and I haven't even released it to my users because I hate it so much. I'll give this a shot later today. I'm also crossing my fingers for a comment & rating upgrade because it'll turn the forum into somewhat of a social netwokring thing.

Toolblast: you need to combine your profile hack with this or something.
