Is there a mod that works that can resize large pictures that are posted in a phpbb forum?
I installed one a while back and it has never worked!
Some members keep posting wide pictures and it means that most people have to scroll sideways, most of the pictures are hosted on other sites such as photobucket.
Thanks in advance

edit: just noticed that I have posted this in the wrong forum sorry, should of been in the phpbb forum |

there is a few mod for resizing pictures. few of them are using javascript and HTML for resizing picture but others are using server side script for changing the size of pictures.
| Quote: | Also note, using any "auto resizing" means the bandwidth use of your forum will go up considerably.
Normally, phpBB does not see the image itself at all, it just passes the image URL to the user's browser, and they fetch the image themself.
For auto resizing to work, your forum's web server has to fetch the image itself (=inbound bandwidth), and then supply the rescaled image to the user (=outbound bandwidth)...
That's something to keep in mind if your hosting plan has limited bandwidth |
