You mean a notification in the user's PM inbox or something else? Would this by any different from the current feature of being able to subscribe to a category or to receive email updates at the image level?

If I'm understanding what you're asking for, I don't think it's a bug. If you have a parent category named A and a child of A named B and both A & B can have images, then when you're viewing the thumbnails of A you wouldn't want to see the thumbs from B because that'd defeat the purpose of making B a child. Unless you mean something else....


(I like to play around with code.... keeps me from going stir crazy... so if there are some hacks that I have time to take on I try to see what I can do. And if it turns out to be something I end up using on my own sites I usually bug the heck out of Brian about making it a stock feature :D :D )

I would really like to see this feature that is already in Coppermine and Photopost:
When somebody clicks on a thumbnail to see the original image, if the image is too large he would see a much bigger thumbnail and he has to click again on the image to see the original. It's the only thing I feel the gallery is really missing. Currently if the image is larger than the member's resolution then the table streches out and it makes the page really bad-looking...

Yes. Great feature...
But deviantART thought of that first too ;)

MY Category 1 is home to Category A,B,C,D,E. Category 1 should show recent images from those categories all the way down.

I like to come up with ideas. Makes me feel productive. :)

Gallery already has 3 image sizes. The thumbnail, the "normal" image which is resized to the limits you set, then if you choose to keep the original image you can click the "normal" image to see the full size original.

Is that not what you're talking about?

As Kevin said, that already is a feature. There's also an option to open the original images in a new window to avoid problems with the table stretching out.

Having to track down what exactly somebody is asking for, instead of them just outright saying it, isn't something I encourage. But, anyway....

So you just want a PM option when subscribing to categories and threads?

For the thumbnail links, if you're running vB 3.0.x try this hack from The Nail Geek -- It's a pretty cool hack that I think would make you happy. I'm really hoping that he upgrades it to be a plug-in for vB 3.5 (not sure if he's started working on this not). Brian tends to stay away from these types of hacks because one of the vBa philosophies is to not touch any vB code unless necessary. With the advent of plug-ins in 3.5, though, the world just got a lot larger.

The trick there is what type of page is the PHP being included on. To clarify, stuff like vBa Gallery, vBa Links, and vBa CMPS all use vB as it's back-end system so there is no need to duplicate the logic to make the database connections and to authenticate because it's already established via vB. Trying to make a generic PHP code would be a bit tricky because what happens if the page it's being inserted on is a non-vB based page? If the assumption is that the only pages that the code will be inserted on then a deviation of one of the CMPS random gallery modules might be able to used as the base for some code. A lot more details would have be narrowed down first though such as what information exactly would be wanted to be displayed, what type of options would be wanted, etcetera.

Gotcha'.... but in that scenario what would be the purpose then of creating the child categories? Not saying it's a good idea or a bad idea, I'm just not seeing the 'big picture' yet as to what it would achieve.

Actually, it was Cong'.... man, that guy must get up pretty early! At 7:00am I'm still thinking about going to work or not. :p

Spending 2 hours creating illustrated mock-ups with detailed descriptions is allways worth the wait... But alas, in this case- It is not.

For I have done my part and waited for approval, only for it to be depreciated by the technology of file-resizing. Which brings up the idea for another feature request...

Would it not be ideal to have an announcement on the upload screen that says:

YOUR FILE WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE RESIZED TO 300 x 300 DIMENSIONS.
IN ADDITION, YOUR FILE WIL HAVE TO BE PREVIEWED BY A MOD.


Alas, I don't use either one of those features, so I really don't care.
But for this site, I have just wated a whole day. Had I known, I would have uploaded them to Photobuket.

1 of 2 things needs to happen:
A. It goes away
B. It displays images.

No?

Exact Dimentions
 
Some of us have Wallpaper Categories.

Nerotic people (like me) would like to have seperate 1024x768 and 800x600 categories.

The problem... (And I'm finding this to be the case a lot) The problem is that is:
PEOPLE DON'T LISTEN, READ THE FAQS, THE STICKIES OR OTHERWISE PAY ATTENTION! lol.

So I wake up with a bunch of 500x500 images in my wallpaper forum (how annoying :rolleyes: ) and I get this idea:

EXACT DIMENSIONS.

the hack calls for a single click on a submission and it makes it your avatar. :)
