Actually, now that I think about it, this is cake:

In vbgarage_imagesbits:

REPLACE with:
[high](Be sure to include a SPACE at the end!)[/high]

<a style="cursor:pointer; cursor-hand" href="vbgarage.php?do=popup&amp;image=$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=getimage&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/vbgarage.php?do=thumb&amp;width=175&amp;id=$image[vbgarageid]" alt="$image[name]" border="0" /></a>

In vbgarage_viewgarage:

FIND and DELETE:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> 
function PopupPic(sPicURL) { 
	newWin=window.open( sPicURL, 'newWin', 
	'resizable=1,HEIGHT=200,WIDTH=200'); 
	newWin.focus(); 
} 
</script> 

Now, customize vbgarage_popup to look however you want. Simply ignore the fact that it says "popup".

I only store the userid in the vbgarage_images database. So, in order for it to return the username, I need to use the vB function fetch_userinfo(); which will parse the specified input (in this case [high]$latest[userid][/high] and return an array for that user consisting of his/her entry in the vB user database.

I'm then assigning that array as $latestuser and calling the specific field, username, with $latestuser[username].

I'll whip up the code for the vehicle info in a bit.

I haven't defined any limits, it's using MEDIUMTEXT.

Ask and ye shall recieve:

In vbgarage.php:

FIND:

PHP Code:

    while ($latest = $DB_site->fetch_Array($result_latest))
    { 


Add BELOW:

PHP Code:

        $result_data = $DB_site->query("
            SELECT year,make,model FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "vbgarage_users WHERE userid = $latest[userid]
        ");
        
        $data = $DB_site->fetch_Array($result_data); 


Now, you should be able to return [high]$data[year][/high], [high]$data[make][/high], [high]$data[model][/high] in vbgarage_latestbits.

Let me know if you have any problems.

Everything is fine, apart from the thumbnails do not display.

Eh? That's odd.. that shouldn't change. Can you see what URL it's trying to parse for the thumbnails?

Are they displaying as X's?

[Envy-UK]

'vbgarage.php?do=thumb&width=175&id=20'

Yes, they're red X's.

The new page looks great though, see attachment.

Edit: Come to think of it, would it be possible to have the filename where I've added 'Return To Garage"? If so, what code would I need to add?
