[shot]/[img] tags converting to [thumb] when quoted?

[Timo]

Is this possible? It'd stop a lot of bitching when someone feels like they need to quote a twenty image post three posts up to say 'lol'.

Plus I think we should remove shot tags in favour of a size-capped image tag.

This, please. This is the only forum I peruse where I need to use a separate tag for big images.

[flibitijibibo]

In favor of this.

Is it possible to have automatic shot tags? If an image is higher than the allowed image size, it automatically shot tags' the image?

[Hunter]

Yeah, but I have never understood how. I amguessing it gets checked when the form is submitted.

Our shot tags are simply <img> elements with a fixed width. Browsers will automatically calculate the height based on this width and the image's original width.

As for auto-converting img and shot to thumb tags... idk how to implement that. Yeah we could do a word-check i suppose, but it would need to only affect actual bbcode tags, and not text.
