Is there a way to bypass the way the gallery compresses images? I've been uploading images all day to my gallery and just now I gave it a look and, oh my gawd! I see jpeg compression artefacts everywhere. I am really, really picky when it comes to image quality I have to offer. What I upload must look exactly the way it should display in my gallery. What's the point in trying to sell digital artwork when it's destroyed by artefacts?

Hello, Does anyone know the actual cover photo dimensions? So I can have profile covers that fit and not ones that only show portions of the images. Like how I can get a facebook cover image to fit perfectly.

So, I've built my own widget (plugin with simple block widget, nothing fancy). Everything is ok, till I turn off the development mode - my widget then disappears (it is enabled in the Plugins menu, but I cannot put it on forums page). I have also discovered that my plugin's JS files are not included when I turn off the development mode, it seems that there needs to occur some build process - I've tried running several tasks in Admin Tasks menu, but these don't bring expected results.

Hello, My board is still on V2 - do I need to go to v3 first or can I upgrade to V4? The upgrade documentation seems to just deal with in-version updates. Do I just make a copy of the current dir and upload these files over the top and run setup? Will it upgrade the database for me?

I purchased commerce last night and just setting it up. I have a problem with it promoting user group upon purchasing. I set up one product, and it works fine. However, another one that is set up to offer advertising doesn't promote group. When you buy it you should get adverts in the board (which works) and also promoted to another group. This doesn't work, the user stays in their original group. All the settings seem to be fine, and the same as the working product. Permissions are fine. Any thoughts?

Sometimes when I'm on my iPad, when I edit a post, then click the 'save' button, it doesn't respond. You can see the button depress when your finger touches it, but it absolutely will not save. It does this inconsistently, but when it happens it annoys me. Anyone else having this issue at times? I was trying to edit typos in this post from my iPad: http://streetntrack.net/topic/2065-my-new-to-me-euro-hotrod/?do=findComment&comment=45341

I have this user who signed in through facebook. On Facebook he had this stupid naked picture of himselve as profileimage. Now - he changed his username and removed the picture from facebook and from everywhere on the net. Still - when people search for his name - first thing they see is this naked picture with a link to my forum as the first hit on google. So - it seems - allthough he has changed his profilepicture and name - his name is still in the quotes all around my forum. How do we recount that in 4.1? Thanks KI

Hi guys, Been playing around with my new IPS installation, still haven't got the import to work yet..in the meantime I have made a couple of minor theme changes. Mostly the colour but also added a header image using the header image plug in, and added a site logo. Earlier I was playing around with the menus, added a new menu button to an external website. That is literally all I did. Now the header area looks like the attached. I reverted the menu to how it was before, nothings changed. Any idea why this happened please?
