Usage hints



• Resizing on the fly
• Clickable thumbnail BBCode howto

This service allows for "resizing on the fly" by modifying the URL ( similar to IMGUR ).


By adding image dimensions into the target URL, your image need only be uploaded once at full size and used anywhere & any size thereafter without any further image manipulation.

Example image ( https://imgdump5.novarata.net/og3pgh.jpg ) is 800x941 pixels in its original form:

. . . but if we use this URL: https://imgdump5.novarata.net/640x753/og3pgh.jpg the software will provide a smaller image:

. . and thumbnail size with https://imgdump5.novarata.net/240x282/og3pgh.jpg


If you have an image in any of the following sizes, any of the other sizes may be used without image distortion.
Please note that increasing an images's size will increase the distortion levels, so it's recommended you start with the largest image available and reduce its size, rather than trying to blow up a small image.

 Landscape orientation
480x360 | 640x480 | 800x600 | 1024x768 | 1200x960 | 1600x1200

 Portrait orientation
360x480 | 480x640 | 600x800 | 768x1024 | 960x1200 | 1200x1600


Oversize images can be a pain in the browser. If you're sharing something detailed ( i.e. "It's huge, so you can see it" ) that may only interest a few folks, it's usually best to use a clickable thumbnail.

To do this on a discussion board, just follow this template:
[URL=https://imgdump5.novarata.net/og3pgh.jpg][IMG]https://imgdump5.novarata.net/240x282/og3pgh.jpg[/IMG][/URL] ( this one uses the pretty girl seen elsewhere on this page as an example )
Explained: [URL=URL to large image][IMG]URL to thumbnail image[/IMG][/URL]

neats vs. scruffies n. 

 The label used to refer to one of
   the continuing holy wars in AI research.  This conflict
   tangles together two separate issues.  One is the relationship
   between human reasoning and AI; `neats' tend to try to build
   systems that `reason' in some way identifiably similar to the
   way humans report themselves as doing, while `scruffies' profess
   not to care whether an algorithm resembles human reasoning in the
   least as long as it works.  More importantly, neats tend to believe
   that logic is king, while scruffies favor looser, more ad-hoc
   methods driven by empirical knowledge.  To a neat, scruffy methods
   appear promiscuous, successful only by accident, and not productive
   of insights about how intelligence actually works; to a scruffy,
   neat methods appear to be hung up on formalism and irrelevant to
   the hard-to-capture `common sense' of living intelligences.
