Uploading images

[chris at cwking.freeserve]

I am working on adding images to an existing card set for Card Vault,
whilst I know there is not an easy way (if at all at present) to add
images unless called from a web site, I can put the pictures on my web
site and retrieve them back.



How though do I go about updating the set so all images are present, and
then uploading the whole set of cards back to the web so all can
benefit? What web site/link do I need to go to, so the completed set is
available for all to download?



Cheers.

Chris

you have to put the url of each image in the url tag of the artwork
group for each card. CV will download the images from whatever url you
specify.

for which game system? are you the author? (this will help with the
second question)

Each "card" within the data files will have "artwork" elements. You can
attach the image URL properly to each artwork element using CVEdit (part of
the Authoring Kit). Once you have all the URLs updated within the data
files, send the modified data files to the author of the files. You can do
this by going to the Help menu within CV and selecting Contact Data File
Author.

If the current author doesn't elect to use your changes, let us know. Since
we've now got full permission from Wizards to support all of their games,
we can release your changes ourselves if need be. Or, we can transfer
ownership of the HP files over to you so that you can release your own
changes directly via an author account on our server.

Thanks, Rob

Hi Rob



Many thanks for all the help on the license key.

Out of interest I used the contact the author from within Card Vault in
regards to the Harry Potter CCG, and emailed the user at the address listed:
jaruuk@msn.com I received this back almost immediately -

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its

SMTP error from remote mailer after RCPT TO:<jaruuk@msn.com>:

host mx2.hotmail.com [65.54.252.230]: 550 Requested action not taken:

Is it possible to relinquish authoring to me or if the author contacts
you/me on another address and still wishes to continue I quite understand.



Chris
