I believe I've gone over it in enough detail so that anyone who would be able to use the <img> tag could use the css hack, but that still leaves the issue of having to use a hack to do it.
I think openly promoting the css hack proves that we should just allow the img tag functionality, really. If we were deadset on not having images in comments, then we shouldn't promote the hack. That's really all I was saying there (Aside from this css hack giving potential for other, more malicious ones)
I'm all for getting the img tag into the video description page, but unfortunately I can't make that change (we'll have to wait for santa Doki). I think one of the motives behind disallowing the img tag is so that people don't have something like a 600h x 9001w image that ends up breaking the page layout. I'm not sure if there's a way to enforce a resolution limit on img tags, but if there is it would take more time to code.
Easy way around that is by adding some additional css to the page. If I remember correctly, just do something like:
- Code: Select all
img{
max-height: ##px;
max-width: ##px;
}
This should, theoretically, resize all images to the 'proper' size if they are larger than the pre-defined variables, and leave those that do not reach the maximum limit alone.
I like the public QC idea too, but again that's something Doki would have to do.
Doki and Corran were pretty much the active coders, but Corran has since stepped down. Right now, anything that involves much programming is not likely to be done (and it'll probably stay that way for the foreseeable future)
How would one go about volunteering their time as a coder?
I haven't been to the site in a long time, but as far as I recall, there's never been anything really in your face when it comes for asking for coder help/volunteers.
