Title: New forum stuff coming your way!
Post by: S-U-P-E-R on November 08, 2005, 07:31:01 PM
We're going to try out some crazy new ideas starting between tonight and the next few days so be on the lookout.

I just turned on images.  May God have mercy on us all


Feel free to try out the free automated image loader I got up on my server:
http://www.boomnizzle.com/pgc/

I said it in announcements too, but yeah, no leeching from other game sites, use image hosting like imageshack or boomnizzle or your own personal web space. And keep that nonsense out of your signatures

This is the maximum width.  If you make me scroll right, I will hunt you down.

SHAKE IT, BABY


OH SHIZZLE

Yeah I feel it's a bad idea cuz our usual oceans of text will be interrupted by.... stuffs.
People have done a good job of pasting URLs to pics, and that method keeps our eyes from being assaulted.

Mario, you just narrowly avoided an edit from my end.  Read the limitations in the announcements.  Table-breaking will not be overlooked.
Title: RE: New forum stuff coming your way!
Post by: RABicle on November 09, 2005, 12:14:50 AM
not an edit!
Table Breaking is the best! eff you guys!

How about turning off the swear word filter? It shits me.

While I no longer care, as I'm not on crappy dial-up and it doesn't effect me anymore, can I make a suggestion?

Many boards give individual users the option to turn images off and have them replaced with a clickable "open in new window" URL - it helps save load times when on crappy dial-up...

Oh, I guess I need to post a picture as well...


NO I LOST AT IMAGE POSTING AHAHAH 640 PIXELS

Especially when Dasmos is posting apparently!  ARG.

That's weird, I definitely didn't undo the swear filter.

I hate this already.  I think you should go with UncleBob's suggestion of having an option to remove the images and instead add clickable links that open in a new window.  Not because I have a slow connection but because I really hate all these nonsense images.

Incorrect. PGC is going all-holograms. We had prepped it to coincide with the release of the Rev, but now with the controller being revealed (without holos...), we were all like "let's do it anyway." Enjoy!

Even the inferior weakness of the non-HD GameCube and Revolution can do 640x480 (at least, as far as we can tell, since Ninty won't confirm even that much about the Rev's specs ). What's the point of being able to post pics if we can't even post our super-secret leaked Revolution screenshots?

Please give us those extra 40 pixels, and let us post things that are 640 pixels in width.


Edit: I forgot to include a bribe. Ummm.... here.

OK....640 is just barely within the table, so I say we'll go with it.  However, remember that 100KB is still the file size limit, so you may still need to do some resizing.

Wait...  640 is now allowed?!?  But my upside down monitor picture already got axed!  I demand... errr... something or other.

Yeah, I'd be concerned if 640x480 couldn't be posted.. that's basic cell phone picture quality there!

Here's mine again!

Hey, I have a question about the rules...

Can we make a special thread where the picture rules can be broken assuming we are still linking to pictures from our own servers?

For example... a thread like this in general chat...

SHOW US YOUR DESKTOP! (NSF56K, NSFH-Scroll)
Title: RE: New forum stuff coming your way!
Post by: KDR_11k on November 10, 2005, 04:18:27 AM
Can you force it to autoadd a max-width attribute to images and avatars? That might help with limiting the damage one can do.

I wanted to show the output of a program I just finished most of the core functionality for.  This particular picture started life at 2009x3000 and 2.48 MB.  Now it is 639x955 and 58.8 KB.  Thats what the program does.  It takes a picture and outputs a version that meets either the Forums size limits or the Avatar size limits.  It outputs both PNG and JPEG but PNG are better quality the JPEGs are generally bigger (physical size).  This is jpeg.

Also what are these other features that were suppose to be coming?
