Hi Folks

Is there a way of using a block to show random images such as the ones in the Community Link on the MKA forum?

The banners in the link will show what I am after.

The images are NOT all the same size however.

A Simple php block should suffice.

The code in the post below does something similar with quotes.

Hmm quotes.

Hey stop giving me ideas will ya.



How would I make the images a similar size?

Should I add the images to a folder of their own?

Well, you could use the portal resizing if you set the class for the image html element to "bbc_img sp_article".

Ie:

Code Select Expand

<img src="{url}" class="bbc_img sp_article" />

Should I add the images to a folder of their own?

You could if you wanted to, although you could use have an array of complete image urls as well.
