Simple image attachment features

[malmazan]

I would like to offer my users just a simple attachment capability, as well as automatic resizing and watermarking.

Ideally a plugin or extension with no code changes to vB, or maybe a very simple external gallery.

I just bought and installed vB so i am now new to it and vBulleting.org. Could help get me steer in the right direction ? Photopost seems an overkill.

Also, i just read http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...ghlight=resize

Enable attachments by usergroups in the usergroup managing bit.

I don't think anyone's made a sucessful watermarking plugin yet because of problems marking gifs and pngs I believe...

Photopost and many image galleries do not seem to have problems with that.

I have seen watermarking on highly succesful vB forums (with no image galleries) with amost a million posts. Specifically http://forocoches.com/foro/

watermarking is possible it's just that no one has made a plugin publicly available

I think so too.

Watermarking is a GREAT viral marketing tool and also helps people not to use the forum as a free photo hosting site.

It really should be standard in vb. New to vb, i cannot believe how packed it is with features i find not useful at all and yet it fails to provide stuff that is really useful.
