^^what do you mean??

in the next release could u please have it so when a users secondary group's permission allows them to upload, but their primary doesnt, that they can still upload?

I have users who's primary usergroup says they cant, and they have 2 or more secondary, both of which say they can upload, but they cant because of their primary usergroup

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 mate, I had the same probs... disable thumbnail option in ACP, but set thumbnail size... although this seems weird, if you enable thumbnail, it only shows half of the picture [oh couse this depends on the size], and it is discoloured. So disabling this shows the entire picture, and in the size you set in the thumbnail size option...

now for the error. I asumed I got this because I disabled thumbnails and it was looking for the thumb_ prefex of the file that didn't exist... So i manually went into the .php file and deleted that line of code... i've had no problems since.

I know it's probably a bit of a work-around than a fix, but it works

[Ohiosweetheart]

I like this feature!

Question... is there a way to make this password protected?
In other words, all of the members who are posting pics will set theirs to public, but ONE universal password is needed to view each members pics.

is this possible?

ok, I disabled the thumbnails, BUT its stil doing the same thing. I noticed one thing though, I only recieve the error

PHP Code:

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


after I click View all images and then click on my Name, it doesn't do it when I veiw another persons images. hm.. weird.

Yeah mate, that should have only cleared up the pic so it isn't all discoloured.

The get rid of that error you need to delete that getimagesize line in the vbimagehost.php file... line 299

guyz, now i've got a question of my own, lol

I want to make this a private system, so not giving users the option to make a pic public... So all pics private by default, no option to change it to public, and no drop down option to 'view all members pics'

can anyone shed any light on how I can do this?

hm. I know I'd like to see an option to make it all private or all public and make it so Guests and people not logged in CAN'T see the images.

Thanks for err, kind of answering my question. Ha.

Anyway, my problem was exactly the same as NR Fatal's, and deleting that line from the vbimagehost seemed to work.

Nice hack, but it needs to be fixed.

[kurtbarker]

I wanna know how to make this thing private... I'm willing to muck around with the code, but i'm no coder
