Lightbox

Please look at integrating lightbox; it makes image handling in threads so much more convenient.

By the way, you can upload right to the gallery.  Up to 2500X2500.

SHAZbing; this is how you do it folks!

There's no support or updates since 2008, the last response to the support thread was a year ago.
I currently have an image handler that resizes them automatically and recognizes images from the various image sharing sites.

What functionality are you missing?

[geswek]

Eh, the one thing you outta figure out is adding the box that says "this image has been resized, click to expand blah blah"--we have it on our fanatics site but that's vb--I couldn't begin to point you in right direction.

It'd be worth it; not everyone knows to click on picture to see larger version. I normally add text to mine so folks know they can do that.

Here example of little yellow bar.

Yeh, that mod is well outdated, and has a lot of problems. There is one, I use it on my forum. Will talk to the boss. Lightbox is the way forward,

[EcoPowerParts]

You do what will work best for us, you have way more experience than I do, if it works better please do it!

[geswek]

I see you incorporated lightbox; you just need to fix the auto-expand so it doesn't butcher the threads--right now it expands a photo and opens lightbox.

ive corrected the javascript in the theme that was doing that. fortunately i knew exactly where in the js to look.

You may just need to ctrl-f5 to trigger it.

Will make the lightbox styling a bit better and add some bordering to images on page to make it clearer you can click them either tonight if i keep awake, or tuesday.

[geswek]

It works now.

I had to clear cache --

Lightbox fully working, slight shadow added to images to make them more obvious that they can be clicked.

[EcoPowerParts]

You are awesome!
Sent from my phone with lots of misspelled words...

[dimspace]

No problem.
Sorry Ive not been around to do it earlier, but running cycling forums during the tour de france is, well, chaos..

Thanks dimspace!  Adds a nice touch to the forum.  And thanks to geswek for suggesting.

AHHHH; your light shadow just butchered signatures.
