DaisyB Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hi there! For my site's anniversary, we usually have special birthday forums for members to post in. For some reason, when trying to add images to the forum desciptions (we just update them from previous years), my images are resizing automatically. Any ideas why? I attached a screenshot - the images are all actually the size of the heart image, which for some reason didn't resize. The balloons and the cake shrunk, and even when I specified a height of 150 and width of 150, the size didn't change/update. I copy/pasted the code for the one that worked into the other forum descriptions to see if that would help anything, but it didn't either. I'm at a loss! This is the code for the one that works: <table> <tbody> <tr> <td> <a href="https://pottersworld.org/forums/index.php?/forum/701-ask-anything/" rel="" target="_blank"><img alt="CupidBow_zps8eb32910" border="0" data-munge-src="https://beta-static.photobucket.com/images/x268/PWadmin/PW%20Anniversary%20Celebrations/.highres/CupidBow_zps8eb32910.png" src="https://pottersworld.org/forums/index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=redirect&url=https://beta-static.photobucket.com/images/x268/PWadmin/PW%2520Anniversary%2520Celebrations/.highres/CupidBow_zps8eb32910.png&key=fd3b7fa8feffdb451f0fa3d03d867ca30053cd4fc8b629ab41d5561a31c6952e&resource=1"></a> </td> <td> <b>A place for you to ask questions - both IC and OOC! </b> <p> </p> <p> <span style="color:#FF0000;"><b>Please make sure that before you post you read the <a href="https://pottersworld.org/forums/index.php?/topic/260278-the-rules/" rel="">rules</a>.</b></span> </p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> This is the code for one of the other forum descriptions: <table> <tbody> <tr> <td> <a href="https://pottersworld.org/forums/index.php?/forum/702-birthday-rp-zone/" rel="" target="_blank"><img alt="592_zps41c71f25.png" border="0" data-munge-src="https://beta-static.photobucket.com/images/x268/PWadmin/PW%20Anniversary%20Celebrations/.highres/592_zps41c71f25.png" src="https://pottersworld.org/forums/index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=redirect&url=https://beta-static.photobucket.com/images/x268/PWadmin/PW%2520Anniversary%2520Celebrations/.highres/592_zps41c71f25.png&key=bb572f6aeae43ac26fc23a2b4d47f94f498eeb2bf928ae90aab2bd944626b4a8&resource=1"></a> </td> <td> <p> <b>Over the last year we've seen so many new members, and so many exciting on-board plots! Step inside for some free-style IC RP'ing - or, if you prefer, a place to be Utterly OOC!</b> </p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> The image codes were copy/pasted from photobucket for all the images, if that's any help to you.

Thank you! Something looks wrong there and I can’t access the second image: https://pottersworld.org/forums/index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=redirect&url=https://beta-static.photobucket.com/images/x268/PWadmin/PW%2520Anniversary%2520Celebrations/.highres/592_zps41c71f25.png&key=bb572f6aeae43ac26fc23a2b4d47f94f498eeb2bf928ae90aab2bd944626b4a8&resource=1 (Personally, I’m not a fan of stuffing such raw HTML in a description, let alone old-school tables. The proper solution would be to use the stock feature to customize the forum icon.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaisyB Posted February 10, 2019 Author Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hm, that's strange. I just tried it by taking the direct link from photobucket and coding it myself with the img tags, and specifying height and width, but for some reason, it wouldn't accept my width changes, so I just have some stretched out balloons. We've talked about using the forum icon setting before, but the issue we've had with it is that we want the icons to be able to link to the forum as well (so a member clicks the icon and is taken to the forum), not just denote read/unread. Do you know if there's a way to alter that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve00 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 If referring to the forum icons then yes ... just need a template edit (problem with that is you may have to make the template edit every time there is an upgrade) No idea if any of your forums would not have any icons which if wanting to click the default icon to take you to the forum then would require more template editing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
