Deviant art Embed Posting request.

By BlackOperationz. 15/12/09, 09:25 am

Hello.. Sorry for another one of these.. Not asking for any new forum sub forums this time..

Just wanting to know if it was possible to add something that allows people to Embed their Artwork without the use of links but "Embed" stuff

Example:
http://animetalk.forumotion.com/game-gc-f42/mario-awsome-t653.htm

That link should show what I mean...

But that is all up to ya'll.. just makes it easier for people to see the artwork without having to follow the links..
I don't know.. I will let yo Decide.. if its a no then.. that will be the end of it..

If this kind of thing can be done already... Please tell me how to do it.. so I can start editing my Deviantart posts.. and what not.. (like how it is on the link I posted)

Note:
I am only looking for something to post about since I haven't been active lately.

I think it's just a matter of editing the bbcode?

I mean on the administration end LOL, Forumotion is a PHPbb2/3 modded forum set, as crappy as it can be (cause i made a forum from it once myself) - it's like any other forum, you go in the back end and edit bbcode.

Well, i can see if i can log into my forummotion and get a tutorial handy? i'm willing to help you guys out on this, because it would be an awesome feature.

AAAND You're limited to smilies and crap.
Sorry guys, administration's not able to add extra BBCODE as far as i can see.
Epic Fail on their part, srsly.

Wow.. this idea is Actually being Considered? D:

IF the mods can figure out the forumotion back-end which I CANT SEE A DARN THING there that says about editing bb code... i'm sure they'd add it, but there's soo many red tape issues compared to most hosted forums >_< eww.

*hugs all the mods* I FEEL YOUR PAIN!

reiko, we are perfectly capable of handling the forums ourselves.

@__@ not what i meant, i went in the foumotion thingie, and i couldnt find anywhere in osharecurry.forumotion.com to edit the bbcode, that's all i'm saying. I'm not meaning that i want to mod/admin cnz i just meant that i was gonna look in the back-end and see how it was done.

I apologize, i should've been more clear on that, or even said something entirley different ^^;;
i meant that i appreciate the work you gys do cause that back-end is scary.

it's just you've brought up how 'crappy' forumotion is several times, and while, in a perfect world, it would be nice to move to a place that was easier to edit/didn't have downtime, it's simply not feasible with such a large userbase.

while it has imperfections, the forums on the whole usually work without too much hassle and that's all that we really need.

it just gets a little frustrating when the problem is constantly brought up, especially when the admins have visited and revisited the issue countless times.

Hey guys! Nothing can be perfect. everything has it's inperfections. CNZ mods have done a really good job with the site, I love it here :)

@Reiko: Um. Actually, as the founder I have access to being able to edit the CSS and BBcoding on these forums, so you're clearly just not looking hard enough. n_n;

@BlackOpz: I do not however have the skills to know how to do what you're asking. ._.; I'll look into though, I guess.

Seraphik, i'm gonna be a good girl and saefly pm you my response (it's not bad just irrelevent to the topic :) )

@ Admin, i just didnt realize it was the CSS/bbcode, i'm used to there being a seperate section in phpbb3 where you edit the bbcode period. o_O;; the back-end of forumotion confuses me lol.

Good to see that deviant art embed is on here : ) sorry if i caused a ruckus in a thread that isnt mine.
