Hey i know how to put images, but it doesnt work. I have it locally in my cstrike folder so i just put image.jpeg for the source. All it comes up with is a blank box with an x in it with the writing part of my motd. Now i uploaded it to image shack and put the website as the src. Then my motd is totally blank no writing or nothing. I appreciate any help.
Thanks Spartanfrog. Smile

You're right in thinking the image has to be hosted. The cstrike folder isn't publicly accessible, so it won't work linking it from there. Did you use the path to the actual image file, rather than the page it's displayed on? I've seen people use imageshack and link the image to the php page it's displayed on, rather than the actual image.

I can't really say more unless you post the line of your motd which links to the image.

Edit: Hmm, but that wouldn't explain why the writing isn't showing up at all. Maybe you could post your entire motd (if it's not too long)?

Linking to a picture in your cstrike file will work. You sure you are spelling it right? Not .jpg or .JPG instead of .jpeg?

**Spartanfrog** · 08-25-2007, 10:26 PM

Well i was linking directly to the imageshack.us page.
Now this is my image code: <p align="center"><img name="shatterproofhtml" src="shatterproofhtml.jpeg" width="180" height="104" border="0" alt=""></p>
And it does not work.
Maybe since i didn;t put the actualy image just the url, it tried to paste the entire webpage on the motd. Probably not im just guessing. Smile

Thanks a bunch Muppet, you have been helping a lot.

I assume "shatterproofhtml.jpeg" is in the same section as your MOTD?

Also, might need to add a "/" at the end of your img tag:

Code:

<img name="shatterproofhtml" src="shatterproofhtml.jpeg" width="180" height="104" border="0" alt="" />

as you might be specifying/it might be specifying a xhtml strict header for MOTD.

Why don't you go ahead and just post the entire MOTD Smile

MOTD works fine on my server. But you are missing out the header:

Yeah the code looks a little messy but it works fine.
Are you sure that your filename is motd.txt and not motd.html?

**Spartanfrog** · 08-26-2007, 09:02 AM

It works! Maybe it worked because of the header? Anyway thanks a bunch.

Anyone?

Pazuzu · 08-28-2007, 01:16 PM

It's too big (filesize). I think the limit is something like 1.8kb (ish).

You could create a webpage with the above included in it. Then in your motd.txt, add http://url.com/motd.html to get around that problem (if it really exists).

instead of making the player press the url, make them redirect
(correct me if I'm wrong)

Redirection through HTML can be a meta tag
