phpBB update

Post by Manitou »

Did a small update to the phpBB code set and now we can rotate pictures in the header. I'm not trying to be narsasitic and only show mine. However, I am a little lazy. If anyone supplies me with a specific image of another chinook..that I can just drop on the server, I'm happy to.
requirements:
500x200 pixels (preferable with gradient fade on the right like the ones posted now)
.png format (was required for the fade.. and now that's just want the code is looking for).

we can rotate in 4 different images at a time.

NIfty!

Also, your rig looks better balanced front-to-back now. Before (at least in the photo) it looked a bit low in the stern. Looks ready for some cruising now!

tried to make you famous bluego, but even I couldn't figure out how to do the fade. (had a buddy that actually knows this stuff)

Just curious: The right-hand fade looks nice, but do they have to do that in order to be used in the header?

I don't think so no. Just have that size (500x200). Which is a wide narrow pic otherwise.. I'm open to try something though (?).

Hmm, yeah, that's wide and short! I tried to make some pics of an 18+ I had 500 x 200 and I couldn't do it without making them too short (which cut off the rig). The funny thing is that the pics in the header don't look that wide/short to me (?) Or are you using the fade at the right to "fix" that?

Or maybe I'm not thinking of something clever...

Yea.. I think the fade goes farther to the right than you'd think.
