Artie Lange & Bigfoot SBs. Thanks, Jackulator for help and inspiration!

[KaptainTrips]

I added two basic soundboards I made to the 'DOWNLOADS' section of the website.

Artie Lange:  basic soundboard of Artie asking when he's getting his $5000 paid pack to him with a few insults all directed to 'Ralph'.

Bigfoot:  Basic soundboard of Bigfoot pissed off about a neighborhood cat shitting on his porch with some dirty talk included.

I would love to hear what you Jack-fans can do with these!

you should definitely put the links to them in this post man

if you click on your downloads you should see some code for 'direct link'

just paste that in here

[jackulator]

oh I forgot to tell you - the direct link goes between the middle brackets of the Flash embed code - the pink/purple/white spiral type button on the far left

so you click modify and you should see that

otherwise if you don't embed it, the link is just to the actual file for a quicker way to download

[KaptainTrips]

you should definitely put the links to them in this post man

Sorry to be obtuse but I'm not sure where to find a 'link' to embed using the flash button when I got to 'DOWNLOADS' page.  I click on the post I made with the .SWF file and I don't see anything to embed.  Teach me once and I'm good ... it just usually takes a while for me to learn

Edit:  OK -- I see how to post the .SWF onto my post now!  How do I make it a link that users can download directly from the 'UPLOADS'?   I love learning something new every day ... here its more than one  thing, hehehe.

[jackulator]

two things - first, the link that you pasted into the embed code to get the soundboard to display in your topic is the link to the actual soundboard file - so if you paste that link into your topic without putting it between the embed code, if people click on it they'll start downloading your board - cutting out the middle man so to speak

also - you can change the dimensions of how your board is displayed in the topic by changing those two numbers that I think are 200 and 200 by default - width and height respectively

[jackulator]

I usually use 870x562 to make my soundboards because it's a nice ratio for most monitors - but use whatever you want man

also - now that you know, be sure to help out other guys when you can 

[KaptainTrips]

You got it man ... once I learn I love to teach (unless I'm under strict code not to reveal trade secrets)

[jackulator]

awesome - yet another tech savvy member

[KaptainTrips]

I've been messing around with computers since I got my VIC-20.  Ever since around '97 it's been hard for me to keep up.  Thanks for the lesson, my friend!

[KaptainTrips]

One last question for ya, Jackulator.  How do I make the embeded link show a different name than what the fle name is?  IE:  how do I make     www.blahBLAHblah.com show      "Bigfoot Soundboard" ?

[jackulator]

I'm not sure actually - I know how to do it with html, but html is turned off on most forums for security reasons

I'm gonna try to find out for you right now

[jackulator]

Is this what you mean?

if it is, you just go

[xurl=http://www.somesite.com]sometext and then go[/url]

except take the x out from before url and change somesite.com to the url you want to link to

great question man!

EDIT:  jeez.  just realized I didn't need to go look it up - that's how I do the download links for every single call on the site

I forgot though because to make it faster when I make a new topic I always just copy/paste the code from an old one and just change the mp3 names... 

[KaptainTrips]

That was what I was trying to figure out.  I really appreciate your help, Jackulator.  I can now post nice, clean threads here@  it is    LOL  and even be able to explain the 'how-to' to other newbies like myself.  I'm still gonna have to mash over the way to modify the link code to show a name over the URL but I'll figgure it out...  I'm a little bit foggy tonight ;P

To all the members that read all the way down to here...  MAKE SOME CALLS with these two boards!!  I wanna hear some calls with them.  It would make my day

[jackulator]

I'm gonna create a help topic for it but for now just copy/paste this code into your topic:

[xurl=http://www.somesite.com/somefolder/somefile.file]Whatever you want the link to read!![/url]

just replace [xurl=http with [url=http

[jackulator]

and replace somesite.com/somefolder/somefile.file with the actual url of the file you want the link to point to


for example, the link in my second to last post:

Is this what you mean?

here it is with an x inserted so the forum can't see it's a link-embedding code:

[xurl=http://www.jackulator.com/smf]Is this what you mean?[/url]

[URRRRRRRRRRRRR]

Hah, I remember that Bigfoot call from Stern. Bigfoot's comedy gold.
