Help Aligning CAPS - ImageVenue Solution
 

Okay guys...

VEF is a great forum, the only real bugbear I've had since joining is aligning CAPS (captured images from video files) then posting them online in VEF.

Here's my observations:

For some reason I'm using ImageVenue.com (I think this is one of the recommended VEF image hosts).

Here's my simple HOW TO guide on posting caps on VEF:

1. I use VLC player to do the actual captures, but I changed a setting in VLC so you get number order. (Eg VLCCAP0000001.jpg)

2. VEF seems to like 4 caps in a row, then it will start another row of 4.

3. The TRICK is to make sure there are no gaps between cap images (coz that saves valuable server space, looks neat for members).

4. You get no gaps by deleting "white space" between these BBcode tags:
"[/URL][URL=http://xxximagefilexxx.jpg]"

5. A good total to go for is 8 caps (2 x rows on VEF)

The BBcode needs to appear in a certain way in your POST before you submit it to the forum. (Then I always hit the Preview Post button so I can see all the CAPS are aligned.

Here's some CAPS of how the BBcode needs to look to get neat 4 cap rows on VEF. (The order problem can be solved by hitting the Sorting Order Button kindly provided on ImageVenue.com. Then you just tell ImagineVenue to "sort by name" (Eg 00001, 00002, 00003)

REAL EXAMPLE photos (How the BBcode Needs To Look In Your Post To Get Neat Rows)

What I do to "align" thumbnails in a post is to have a space between the UBB code for each thumbnail, NO CARRIAGE RETURNS (aka "Enter" or "End of Line"). That way the forum software treats each thumbnail as a word and when users view the posts they are automatically formatted to account for the user's monitor settings.

Can't post .rtf files to Imagebam.
 

I don't have the ability to create .jpeg or other type files that Imagebam will accept, and IB certainly won't accept .rtf files. Can anyone suggest a way for me to post this file?

.rtf is not an image file. It stands for Rich Text File. That's why Imagebam won't accept it.

So I got a Question,
So in Imagebam image hosting when i do upload a adult or pornographic photo to a forum or in a thread, i have to select Select Type: (required) and then adult Content? So i have to do that for all my images or image grabs that i do with imagebam?

Yes - the alternative is 'FAMILY SAFE content' (Safe For Work), but:

Imagebam - help needed
 

Hi guys!
I can't upload any picture with "imagebam". If I put in the requested URL nothing happens. - What am I doing wrong? :confused:
Thank you for your help in advance.

This forum works with BB-code, did you copy and paste the BB-code URL?

Solved
 

Thank you Gruenspecht! That exactly was the problem.
