Including Covers pictures to your posts

Post by seb »

Following the Ton1 (Antonin) request, you can now add covers to your posts

To add covers, use \[cover=XXXX\]

XXXX being the number included in the cover link

for example the first Come Ethiopians Freedom Sounds cover ID is 300 ; the cover link being http://www.roots-archives.com/artwork/a ... bs/300.jpg

\[cover=300\]
[cover=300,343]

The second one is 301 ; the cover link being http://www.roots-archives.com/artwork/a ... bs/301.jpg

\[cover=301\]
[cover=301,343]

of course you can display labels pictures as well

\[cover=4249\]
[cover=4249,343]

you can't post more than 10 pictures per post

if you click on a picture, it will lead you to the album page

all the best,

Seb

Excellent!

But do we have any rules as to when you can and can't use this facility? I can see people using them as kind of proxy avatars!

Good point

this tag should only be used to illustrate a discussion about an album (or a specific release of an album)

sounds logic to me ... but is human that logic ? mmmm

NOTE the use of the COVER link, which is the jpg file number of the thumbnail, NOT the LP info page url!
