Version History
v3 - Initial release. Let's hope I don't have alot of entries here.
v3.0.1 - Added GD-Lib Support!
v3.1.0 - Added User Comments, Latest Uploads on Garage List, AdminCP Options
v3.1.1 - Added ability for Admin to "edit" users' garages. Use ImageCopyResampled(); over ImageCopyResized(); for better thumbnail quality.
Planned Features
- Multiple entries per user.
- Possible integration with Photopost/Coppermine/etc..
You must be using GD2.0+, else thumbnailing will not work. You need to upgrade your GD version.
I upgraded from v3 to v3.1 successfully. I don't have GD support. I get red "x" where all the thumbnails used to be. Is there a way to revert back to thumbnail resizing? Thanks
Ideally, random......... and clickable so you can go right to the pic owners garage...... IM looking to put it right below the navbar on my forums page...Maybe add it as a block on my VBAdvanced

Glad to hear it. I did, however, notice that your navbar link isn't working. You have it pointing to /vbgarage.php?do=list, when it should be /[high]forums/[/high]vbgarage.php?do=list.
On a side note, nice site. I just picked up a '96 GSXR750 yesterday, I might just sign up.
Thanks I didnt notice it off the front page.
Congrats on the Bike.. welcome to the dark side.. now we will never see you this summer.. unless its raining.. lol .. Make sure you login and post your bike
are my pics ment to look like this ? i have gd 2 +
Yes. Unfortunately I'm not a GD wizard, so if the image quality for thumbnails is unsatisfactory, there's not much I can at the moment. I'm still learning about GD, so if I come across anything that might help, I'll share the info.

Yes. In both vbgarage_imagesbits and vbgarage_editimagesbits you will change [high]?do=thumb&width=100[/high] to [high]?do=getimage[/high]. Then, set appropriate [high]width=[/high] variables for the <IMG> tags.
