Mod Name / Version: Prevent avatar pics from stretching to the max allowable size after editing personal prefs (editbasic.php). <br /> <br />Description: This is a bug-fix which prevents avatar pics from *stretching to the maximum allowable image size after a user makes changes to their personal prefs page, but where they don't upload a new avatar. <br /> <br />*In order for the stretch to occur, their avatar pic must have been originally smaller (width and/or height) than the max allowable size. If it was already larger (both width & height), then no stretching would have occured since it gets set to the maximum size anyway. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Working Under: UBB.Threads 6.3 <br /> <br />Mod Status: Finished <br /> <br />Any pre-requisites: <br /> <br />Author(s): Twisty <br /> <br />Date: 07/17/04 <br /> <br />Credits: <br /> <br />Files Altered: changebasic.php <br /> <br />New Files: <br /> <br />Database Altered: no <br /> <br />Info/Instructions: In changebasic.php... <br /> <br />CHANGE THIS: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />TO THIS: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />:-) <br /> <br /> <br />Disclaimer: Please backup every file that you intend to modify. <br />If the modification modifies the database, it's a good idea to backup your database before doing so. <br /> <br />Note: If you modify your UBB.Threads code, you may be giving up your right for "official" support from Infopop.If you need official support, you'll need to restore unmodified files.

Nice one, thanks. This has been bugging me for quite a while, but not enough to actually do anything about it. =]

My visitors were getting ready to inflict grievous bodily harm on me if I didn't finally fix this one, so I pretty much did it for self-preservation reasons <img src="http://www.ubbdev.com/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Luckily my users haven't really found out when and why it happens yet and I'm not going to say anything. =]

FYI This is not correct in 6.5 b4.<br /><br />The code in b4 is:<br /><br />// ----------------------------------------------------------<br />// If picture doesn't end with gif or jpg then we disallow it<br />if ( ($Picture) && ($Picture != "http://") && (!preg_match("/(png|jpg|gif)$/i",$Picture))) {<br /> $html -> not_right($ubbt_lang['BAD_PIC'],$Cat);<br />}<br />if ($picchange == "url") {<br /> if ( ($Picture) && ($Picture != "http://") && ($Picture != "none") ) {

But it was still there for v6.3 users, and the mod is not meant to be used by anyone using a newer version.
