Images or thumbnails and Views

[Sam-antha]

What defines the definition of a pic in the forum ?
Categories are :
1 : Attached images
2 : Thumbnails
and 3 : Another entry without a title

Also, what are Views ?
Are they the number of copies made of a particular picture by members ?
Can visitors copy pics in a non-members section.. Probably the reply is Yes.
Sometimes the number of views shows when the mouse hovers on the pic while at other times the number of view does not show. Is this related to the picture Category ?

Attached images are images attached to the forum's server that are under the maximium displayed size allowance.

Thumbnails are images attached to the forum's server that are under the maximium displayed size allowance. and are thumbnailed to fit in the size allowance and are clickable to view full sized.

Without a title is usually linked to from an outside image hosting site and displayed using the IMG tags, or sometimes it is attached to the forum, but is called up by using the ATTACHMENT # - this last way does not display the Attached Image text.

Views have been discussed here many times, no definitive answer has ever been reached....

Visitors (non members) cannot copy images in member areas, as they cannot view those areas - they can copy them from public sections of the forum.

Whether or not the number of views shows is dependant on where the image is stored, on this forum or a seperate image hosting site.
