A suggestion: A feature to add keywords to images (and a search function for them), so you can use it as an image management system for your site (news/reviews/tutorials/...) and you can easily reuse images. Ofcourse there should be an option in the AdminCP to turn it off.

I don't know if this is possible, but I would love it

I totally agree! My users would want to have a line of text for each photo. Not much, but something. Is this possible?

I would definately install if it is.

When I upload an image they are all located in the upper left corner which leaves an unattractive black area around the image. Please refer to this link for an example: http://currentday.com/forums/vbimgho...iewimages&id=2 is there anything I can do to fix this?

Thanks,
Gehanna

[rareclownfish]

OK fellas how do I turn this function on? I can't upload pics says that I need permission.

[Gehanna]

You have to go into usergroup permissions to set the permissions.

Thanks got it to work,

I have another question about this, when I click on my forum page I can use the imagehosting, upload etc. When I click on the my gallery and them try to load anything in the imagehosting it gives me a page error.
The url goes to this http://www.rareclownfish.com/gallery...hp?do=myimages
And I get this error
HTTP 404 - File not found
Internet Explorer

Nice, works great.

Cant wait for the next version though (ability to upload multiple images at once, and for an Admin to view all private images)

I do have a question though..
Would it be possible to make it so the default of the images is set at "public view", and not "private"? So, the user would have to make it private, instead of public. Thanks.

/clicks install

[Jake25]

Alright, I do have an issue.

When I have the "Enable Thumbnail option" clicked on "yes", I get very distorted/discolored images as thumbs.

When I dont have it clicked (when the "Enable Thumbnail option" is set to "no"), it displays the images perfect (i have GD 2+), however, when a user clicks to see any other users images, they get this error.

Warning: getimagesize(ImageHost/thum_1443840c402728.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /vbimghost.php on line 299

Warning: getimagesize(ImageHost/thum_1443841499c426.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /vbimghost.php on line 299

Any ideas.

[NR Fatal]

now i'm wondering about this the images are comming up off color and I'm recieving an error at the top of my page when I click "view all user images"

Warning: getimagesize(imagehosting/thum_24438430dd43d0.bmp): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /vbimghost.php on line 299

also, the thumbnails are of the pictures are distorted and the colors are off. (attached file below), when I click the image the picture looks fine its just the pics here that are distorted and also a huge black box around it. whats the matter with it?

jake25's prob. is like mine but slightly different. I'm receiveing the error while only clicking the "view all user images" link. the images come up, its just that error on the top of the window.

Hey Ran or anyone that can help, I would like to change the wording VB IMAGE HOST to say somthing else on the forum say Pictures Hosting or somthing like that.
Thanks
