Media page sucks

[TradeMark]

http://springrts.com/media.php

Impossible to share certain screenshots, all i can do is link there and tell someone to look at certain screenshot (like thats ever gonna happen).

It needs some link at bottom "open in new window" or "copy link" etc.

Edit: noticed the only way to open it in new window is to right click on the thumbnail and select "open in new window", IMO it should be done with link in the preview too.

I can get the image links quite easy using Firebug (Addon for Firefox). Feel free to ask me for a link and I'll send it your way

[Auswaschbar]

That highlighted item from the context menu translates to: copy link location, which will give you direct link to full sized image

middle mouse button on 1 of the thumbnails works too

oh, neat, but i still prefer something visible link.

Isnt that supposed to be screenshots? Theres a bunch of screens from jaz that have weird blur effects which obviously shooped.

There's the code, feel free to improve it.

If you really are going to do it and need a sample database feel free to ask me, then I can probably make one.

The thing I don't like is the "Media selector". It's kind of a useless feature as there are so many "bad categories" having just one piece attached to it and unlikely ever getting a second one that fits there. Together with the unsorted list it's hard to find a specific interest...

The rules for the catgories really should be more strict so you don't get several topics about the same stuff under several names while also not using those "useless" category names which don't tell a user anything and will like never get an additional piece of content...

thanks, im already fixing it.

but eh, its full of shit like this:

Code: Select all

<img src="images/pixel.gif" height="1" width="16" />

someone readed the table propaganda page and believed it ? you dont need to pad tables with images like that lolz. edit: calculated: 45KB out of 67KB useless crap in the HTML :D

Yeah it's quite ugly html. I fixed the frontpage already to just use CSS for that, but since I didn't do anything on media page yet it's still the original.

fixed:
Change Line 467 on /external/lytebox/lytebox.js:

Code: Select all

	object.innerHTML = (sTitle == null ? '' : sTitle);

To:

Code: Select all

	object.innerHTML =  "<a href=\"" + (myLytebox.isSlideshow ? myLytebox.slideArray[myLytebox.activeSlide][0] : myLytebox.imageArray[myLytebox.activeImage][0]) + "\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Open in new window\" style=\"color:blue\">" + (sTitle == null ? '' : sTitle) + "</a>";
