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..
How hard would it be to integrate with Photopost (do you know?) I have an if statement atm so that if a user has a members gallery it will put a link to their gallery in the postbit - i was thinking of having a 'Click here for this users Gallery' type thing in the profile of the car.
Also, could this be integrated with the VB Timeslips?
Thanks again!! I'll install it regardless of the answers!!
Hmmmm.. but why multiple garage's? I mean when I open my Garage door I see both my vehicals in the same garage. Maybe have it so you can add to different cars in the same garage? This way it keeps someones "Garage Profile" on the same page

I agree. Multiple garages will mess up the postbit link also.
Yea, I'm looking into that. I believe filburt mentioned it earlier. I'm not sure I can use the vB WYSIWYG Editor, since I'm not using the vB posting system. But, we'll see.
I managed to integrate the WYSIWYG editor into the page, but I couldnt get it to submit the data correctly - I think that is just my lack of knowledge though, so I will keep trying.

I'll check this one out, as this must be at my end!

Exactly. Getting the WYSIWYG Editor to display is easy, it's simply a template. However, getting to actually submit is the trick. I may just have to create a secondary WYSIWYG routine/template and implement it. It's redundant, but it would work.
Can we:
Enable or disable the IMG tag in the cpanel for the Garage?
As admins have the option to EDIT a member's garage for them?
Thanks!
At the moment, you would have to edit vbgarage.php and change the parse_bbcode2(); options. I will, however, be implementing AdminCP options for these. If you want to go ahead and change it now, to allow [IMG] tags simply perform the following edit:
