Dynamic Image In Signature
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)Posted by: Infested Cats
I'm trying to post a dynamic image in my signature.
Specifically, i'm trying to use the Audio Tracker plugin (http://www.audio-tracker.com) that Diäb Soulé mentioned in page 3 (http://www.kazaalite.ath.cx/bb/index.php?s=&act=ST&f=5&t=8824&st=30) of the "Post Your Screen Shots" post.
When I try to use my dynamic image (http://www.audio-tracker.com/song.php/Infested%20Cats), i get this error:
You are not allowed to use that image extension on this board. A valid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.gif, an invalid format is: http://www.domain.com/picture.one.gif
Normally, the code would look like this: [img]http://www.audio-tracker.com/song.php/Infested%20Cats[/img]
Is it possible to get this working? I know that the Audio Tracker plugin DOES work on these types of forums (vBulletin, phpBB, YaBB, UBB).
[ADDED] The reason why i dont think its working is because the IMG script needs to recognize a valid image extension... so, apparently, it wont recognize a dynamic image... perhaps this could be worked out somehow?

Yes, i think IPB doesn't like that. It needs a correct Image extension ( gif,jpeg,jpg,swf,png ) to allow an image. But i don't know how to change this ...
Dynamic Images are allowed so thats not the reason.

I just saw in Giy's post that he/she has the same thing as you, and by viewing the source of the sig, I see what you gotta do..
This will work, I tested it in my sig to be sure :)
