Well no one else will start a bbcode archive, so I'll do it myself!

I love bbcodes, bits of HTML joy that are often really lacking a most fora. I have made several in my time, some I have seen mentioned in passing at vb.org but never pinned down so I'm going to do these myself!

All of the following codes are added in your admincp under:
Custom BB Codes -> BB Code Manager -> Add New BB Code
or
Custom BB Codes -> Add New BB Code

Where I have typed '-->>' this is to show you an example of the output of using the code. Do not copy that data into your bbcode form.

All tags are tested in IE and Firefox - none of these 'IE only' rubbish tags

Credit to the following sign tags (well at least the first one) goes out to Hoffi in this thread which appeared ages ago when there was a separate vbtemplates site.
Quote:

This is a very useful tag I made for my forum. What it does it takes a large image, e.g. a wallpaper or screenshot and stretches it to take up 100% of the avalible width. It then makes the image a link to the full version.

This stops the syndrome where you'd have either loads of oversized images, or loads of links. Also since the full version is loaded first time, when you click the link the full image loads instantly

Quote:
100 TAG
Title: 100
Tag: 100
Replacement:
Code:
<a href="{param}"><img width="100%" src="{param}" border="0"></a>
Example: [100]<path to image here>[/100] here's a thread on my forum where you can see it in action
Description: An image taking up 100% of the width of the page, click for full version
Use {option}: No
Button Image: not created
Only problem with this system as it stands is that it will occasionally make large images larger for people viewing on a very large resolution which can potentially make an image worse to look at. There are no plans to fix this yet as it would a totally different hack otherwise beyond my capabilities.

Another great benefit of this is it eliminates the moderator/administrator effort to police images that are too wide for people's screens, wrap this code and you'll never have that problem.

I might release 'variations' on this theme if people like. For example the hyperlink to full version may prevent other hyperlinks which may be a problem in some cases so you might use a version without the <a href... but I'm sure people can figure this out for yourselves.

You might want to use alternative tags like [largeimage] or [wide] or [fit] or something rather than [100]. I chose [100] because it's short, and it reminds me it fits the image to 100% width whatever happens. See attachment for what this looks like.

Well that's all folks. Get back to me on any mistakes if you want. This post took a long time to prepare as you might imagine!

If you install any of these tags, please click install

<a href="http://www.answers.com/topic/blink-tag" target="_blank">http://www.answers.com/topic/blink-tag</a>

"The blink element type was first invented for Netscape Navigator and is still supported in its descendants, such as Mozilla Firefox. It is also supported by the Opera Internet Browser. Most other browsers, such as Microsoft's Internet Explorer, do not support it, even in its CSS incarnation."

"The inventor of the blink tag, Lou Montulli, has said repeatedly in interviews for magazines and other media that he considers 'the blink tag to be the worst thing I've ever done for the Internet.'"

Hey man,First i'd like to say thanks for these,the float tags and google one i find very helpful but now i wanted to ask about a small issue as well.After creating the custom BB tags for float left and right i attempted to test them.Then i happened to notice it seems to interfere with sig images pushing them asside and putting the image on the same line as sigs for some strange reason.I am not sure if you have already answered this but any help would be great.I am using VB 3.5.4 in case you need that info.Thanks!

try experimenting with the image right tag. Initially I put imgr /imgr then my text - and the image appeared as you said after everythign like it fell out of the tempate. Then I put it before my text, and it nicely stayed on the right side of the post with teh text filling in the left side.
