Some useful and helpful BBCCode Suggestions:

Postby Weylin » Tue Jun 22, 2010 7:53 am

A [hide] tag. it would work like this:
You would wrap the tag around text/images/whatever, and in a post would look like:

_____________________________________________________
|Hidden Content:__________________________________Show|

Would be useful for making galleries with a lot of images, spoilers, etc.


Not sure if this is possible, but a modification to the img and svg tags. Basically:

[img=400,500]img url[/img] Allows you to set the size of an image manually. Same concept for svg, and if possible, da.

The problem with custom BBCodes is that most people will never need to use them often enough to learn them.

Setting a width/height for an SVG won't scale the SVG, rather it'll just change the container. This is because the SVG size is coded within the file itself and Inkscape uses absolute values for this.

Most people are happy to post raster their images at 100% scale, and I would prefer they did this rather than posting a super high resolution and scaling it to a thumbnail. But mostly, there's just not enough need.

And hidden tags are great for movie/game/book websites. But I just can't see it being used frequently on a graphics software website. Although you do have me curious about what Inkscape spoilers you might want to be posting ;)

Well if you see here,

I have used a Hide tag to categorize my graphics and organize my post.. It's way cleaner than posting the hundreds of images scattered through my post and having everyone wait for them to load.

I see your point, but I'd rather people didn't post hundreds of images in the first place. If you want to show off your entire collection of Inkscape work, I suggest posting them on deviantart.com and providing a link.
