MPDev's Graffiti Wall

The Graffiti Wall is a simple script where people can "paint" text onto a brick wall. You can see an example of the vB3 integration on ExtremeFitness.Com.

I also use an img src with half sized dimensions to preview the wall on my Summary page which can be seen on ViperAlley.Com; this could also be added to your portal pages for greater exposure.

Features
. Fully integrated with vB3 for styles/users
. Admin/Mods can "wipe board"
. Optional logging of paints to log file

This is a very simple mod to install; there is one self contained .php script, a few fonts and a bricks.jpg file to upload.

Requirements
. Your server must have GD2 support (GD1 support may work, but not tested) for PNG files including TTF support.

This is the updated mod from the 3.0x version located here.

Be kind and click INSTALL if you use this mod.

1.0.1 - 2/3/2006
. Fixed painttext issue in ZIP file

It states in the release this is not supported.
I suggest you don't attempt to install hacks that are beyond your current skill level.

I cannot get the brick wall to show up for me. ExtremeTim's fix worked, but the text is showing up on a white background. Uploaded bricks.jpg to my images directory. graffiti.png is at 666. Any ideas?

[docvader]

Yea.
Read the post above.
The hack doesn't work well. Don't deal with it

In wall.php change the following to the dimensions you want in pixels.
$picwidth = 1024;
$picheight = 600;

Resize graffiti.png to match the dimensions you added in wall.php

You may have to wipe the wall for the changes to take effect.

hello..we are trying to install it...but gettinn error

Fatal error: imagecreatefrompng(): gd-png: fatal libpng error: IDAT: CRC error in /www/g/golponet1/htdocs/forum/wall.php on line 94

what to do now?

[MPDev]

If you don't have GD support enabled, the mod won't work. There is nothing I can do to fix it for you, you need to get GD support enabled.

As for any errors in the zip file, I'll check into it in the next few days and update it if necessary.

Line 150 is blank, so I assume you modified the file in some way that there is a line there which is causing a problem.

does this extension supported by author or by ano one?

any one success using it?
badly need help..

Fatal error: imagecreatefrompng(): gd-png: fatal libpng error: IDAT: CRC error in /www/g/golponet1/htdocs/forum/wall.php on line 94

[MPDev]

Looks like your libpng support is corrupted/not working; try Googling for the error message to see how to fix it.
