Resizing images as links.

[crunch]

Hello and how is everyone?

Just a quick q....I have been at .Map for quite some time, and have yet to
figure this out.

In almost any other site I post to, I can create a thumbnail image in a post that you can click to enlarge. At this forum, I have been unsuccessful, either with html or ubbc......
Does anyone know the code for the thumbnail/enlarge method of image posting for .Map? Or would I have to upload a small pic with a link to a larger image?

Its done here:

Code: Select all

Objective random position 1

Yup you need 2 pics, a small one and a big one, then type bbcode like this:

Code: Select all

[url=linktobigimage][img]linktosmallimage[/img][/url]

ive never seen waht ur talking about cruch. what forum does that, im curious.

I can do it on the VonderCrunch forum, Nemesis' page, Alliedassault.us, Uberclan........to name a few.
It is a simple code, similar to what jv_map posted, except I do not need to separate images. I can resize the large image directly on the forum page, and link it to a larger image.

Here's an example:
Sample image resize.
The thumbnail images are simply scaled down versions of the larger image, not a separate picture, using this code:

Code: Select all

I cannot use the same code here to resize one image....

I have never been able to get html to work in a post, even though it says it is on.

Had to try it. This is a pic of my hotel hall.

yes thats because Admins have to set certain HTML tags allowed. so u can only use certain tags.

By default phpBB (the forums used on .map) allows these tags:

<b><i><u><pre>

[hogleg]

What am I doing wrong above??



AAAaaaaaaahhh.

[m4rine]

u are using HTML tags not allowed - see my above post

[jv_map]

Yup that's right you can only use <b>,<i>,<u> and <pre>... that's done to prevent users from posting crap like <iframe>s

[hogleg]

Figured it out. Thx alot

[m4rine]

yeh but thats what u can do with BBcode anyway. the default settings are sensible because even with <a href=""> links ppl can add stuff like onmouseover.windowstauus whatever to mess wiht .maps appearence or to load about 500 po-ups and install applets and crazy stuff...

but .map is a great communitty, i was even shocked to see other communitys, one everyone abused each other all time... and they were mapping forums like these (well, gaming forums)...

i doubt anyone would do it... maybe a PHP guru could edit PHPBB code to allow it? also, i suggest u look for mods and extensions on www.phpBB.com, they may be one, if anyone finds one ask an admion, u never know...

And yes I did notice the coronas being off a little/ fixed.

Thought I would point that out before some1 else did.
