Goku: It would be good if I had the "know-how" to move an entire forum-skin onto a picture host... I know how to move the images and icons but not the main background theme...

Can you guys give me a run down on CSS? How do I do that?

I have reported the problem as it happened was about 2:00 am my time - and it just happened.
Have replaced the skin - but can't find a good match - so a lot of work that looked good now looks like sh..t. Also an other PROBLEM. I LOST the access to the ADMIN PANEL from the bottom of the forum - it simply is not there. (I can get in via a link for now). Don't know if that is due to the skin.. or some other issue.

CAN I CHANGE skins any number of times - or is there some potential problem doing that?
(seems to me it should be ok - but I am a very new user - new forum owner - not very happy - feels like I'm up against some brick walls)

I would like to try and change the pic hosting. But scared to touch it... Please confirm for me... if i mess-up I can always just take an other skin and basically still be no worse off then I am except for losing my time???

On a very different note: I think that the people trying to help here are doing their best - and we the users are at a vary varied levels of knowledge. I think I'm just grateful for the effort made to help us out - with this FREE software.

Hi I posted this above - I just hope someone has the answers for me - if you know please reply! (I colored my main questions to save reading time)

Thank you

ok guys just go to your css and press ctrl+F and type photobucket in it

and search for it and when you found 1 link copy that link and open it in the new tab and then save that image and upload that on other host and then replace the link in the css and search again for photobucket and find another link and so on

Excellent, worked perfect! Forum running smoothly again! Many many thanks! :wouhou:

by Goku93 October 26th 2009, 12:29 am

sorry for late reply

ok find the link and open the first link and save that image on your computer by right clicking on the picture and selecting save image as

and then go to tinypic or servimg and upload that image

and then copy the direct link from that image host and poaste the new image link instead of the old one

by Yoshimo October 26th 2009, 12:38 am

YES YES YES I got my forum back!

Not successful. I have several photo bucket images in the CSS file. I tried replacing (1) photo bucket image using all 4 upload options from tinypic.com, but the CSS panel denied all it.

Next photo bucket would not give me my original photo back when I copy -pasted their image old code in the CSS file. (So I stopped.)

1. Which tinypic code works in the CSS file?

2. Do I copy paste the entire link to the CSS file OR only a portion of the link?

I am willing to work - until it's resolved. Thanks!

by Goku93 October 26th 2009, 2:27 am

ok then when you search a photovucket link by typing photobucket in the search box

then copy the whole link of the image hosted by photobucket and paste it in the new tab and open it

when it is opened upload it on tiny pic and when it gets upload use the last option given there the direct image link

by Yoshimo October 26th 2009, 2:28 am

This is what I did and it worked
1. Open your CSS Sheet
2. Find all the PhotoBucket links (Make sure they are the direct links, starting with "http://" and ending with ".png or .gif")
3. Create or use a VERY EMPTY/Lightly used PhotoBucket account
4. Upload all the PhotoBucket links in the CSS Sheet to your PB acount
5. Replace all the PhotoBucket links with your own links from your profile
6. Save the CSS sheet.

The problem with the thing, (I guess) is that once you go over too much space in your PhotoBucket account, all your images are still there, but they get replaced by the bandwidth thing. Because all of Jalokim's images are still there, but PhotoBucket's just changed what they look like because of his bandwidth problem.

Try that and it should work.

by OLOV October 26th 2009, 3:02 am

Thanks. Good specific instructions. Followed all directions.
Result: Unsuccessful.

I added the photo bucket DIRECT LINK to the CSS panel
(Note: I kept the single originial quote command then I deleted the singe ' command.)
Result(s): Unsuccessful

('https://2img.net/h/i191.photobucket.com/albums/z301/lastfmbadges/a1/bac.png')

Do I need to do anything else after I Submit? For example, resynchronize the forum?

Thanks so much.

by Yoshimo October 26th 2009, 3:05 am

I don't know then. Is your theme by Jalokim? If you want you can use all my images.

I make sure not to mess with those ' or " things i didn't know what they were.

It worked for me. Link to your forum?

by OLOV October 26th 2009, 3:11 am

Maybe I didn't SAVE the CSS Sheet.

Is Submit the same as Save?

by Yoshimo October 26th 2009, 3:12 am

Yeah!

by WPC October 26th 2009, 3:12 am

I've replaced all Photobucket images in the CSS yet am still seeing these errors. Mind you we only had two Photobucket images that I'm almost certain had nothing to do with the issue at hand.

Any suggestions?

by Yoshimo October 26th 2009, 3:15 am

Well, I replaced all of the ones that I could find and it worked for me. There are however other images that are still there. Those are the "illiweb" I think or something like that.

But it can't be those, because the problem is obviously photobucket. Did you get all the links?

Result: Unsuccessful

In the past, each time, each time I attempted to change a color in the CSS file, it offset a bug or glitch on my main forum.

From now on, I won't tamper with the CSS file.

Thanks so much. I'll keep trying.

by WPC October 26th 2009, 3:19 am

Not sure what happened, but the images that I saved and re-uploaded didn't take last night as I just found them again in the CSS.

Save and uploaded to imageshack (again) and all seems to be well. Weird. Smile

No I only worked with 1 link - then I hit Submit. (But the image did not show up. )

I'll replace all old photo bucket links in the CSS file.

I have several photo bucket images. It will take time. Thanks again.

by OLOV October 26th 2009, 3:35 am

WPC, my images are not successfully saving in the CSS file either. mwii

I'm working on replacing them one by one, then submit. No success. Will replace all - to see end result.
