New BB tag to do image thumbnails...

This hack adds a new tag to your forums that will allow you to post images
in the form of a thumbnail.

The tag allows you to post pictures in the form of a thumbnail. Large images
can throw off the page, and the tag will scale the picture down to an 80x60
thumbnail preserving its original length and width ratio and turn it into a
hyperlink that you can click on and see the full image in a new browser window.
If the image being thumbnailed is smaller than 80x60, it will show up as is.

This tag is identical to the IMG tag. The new tag is THUMB

Tables affected: none
Templates affected: none
Files affected: admin/functions.php

Note: This tag does not resize the actual picture. It just displays them at a smaller
scale. It will not help with bandwidth preservation.

no problems anymore

is there anyway to make this work with attached images that were uploaded through a post made by someone. They use an img src tag rather than a {img} tag.

This works great!

Except I run into a very terrible issue with the code I think....

Zzed, if you can help possibly, please do so. I am all set with your code, and used your recomendation from this post:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ight=%5Bimg%5D

To use that line of code that will have [IMG] tags changed to [THUMB] tags. So I edited the functions.php perfectly fine, and everything works perfect.

The max estimated image size I can use for the forum dimensions is 540 x 405. Any image Higher than 540 will automatically resize to 540, no problems. But for things like signatures.... and small icons, I will always get a big thick black border around the small image. I even made the setting in your code of border="3" set to "0". So what could be the problem?

Is it looking at any image w/ [IMG] tags around it and trying to do this little equation or what?

All I am asking is for a fix that takes away those borders even though border="0" is on... Please Help!

try this. Open admin/functions.php up
look for the folowing code.

PHP Code:

$code="<a href=\"$code\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"$code\" width=\"$xsize\" height=\"$ysize\" border=\"3\"></a>"; 


and change "border=\"3\ to border=\"1\

I havent tryed it, but let us know if that works

[Tweak589]

He asked how to color the border, not the thickness....

[MatrixSh0cke]

LOL, yeah I already trimmed the border down, I just wanted to color it. I tried the bordercolor= thing, but it didnt work. Is there something else I need to do?

[MatrixSh0cke]

No one can tell me how? ;_;

[Prince]

did you add the bordercolor tag to the first img line too?

this one:
$code = "<a href=\"$code\" target=\"_blank\"><img src=\"$code\"></a>";
