What exactly is the rule for uploading an image as an attached file and getting it to display inline? I don’t want to spam the forums with experiments. Is it dimensions, file size… ?

Got me.... sometimes I seem to be able to do it and other times not.

I tried post a photo, link to a web page and put it in the files at the bottom.....

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

One trick is to upload an image, then, if it doesn’t show, visit the Attachments link and use that URL in an IMG link, as I’ve done here (“Quick Quote” shows source code.) This AI rendering of “watermelon with lips” is a 1024x1024 PNG.

Well, Mark, I now expect you to animate the lips and make it sing Watermelon Man...lol

Of course, you have to get the AI to write some lyrics...lol

As Mark Hayes said, you cannot use the handy "Quick Reply" area.
You have to click "Reply" on a specific post .. then in the resulting window scroll down a little and look for the tiny little File Manager link. Works great (usually) once you find it.

It is always available in an new post, but in a reply there is a certain click path needed to access it.

I would still love to know exactly how large an attached image can be before it will no longer display inline in a post.

Here’s one that works, 1072x479…

Looks like you got in just over 1000..... From my experience the largest dimension has to be about 1000 pixels or so, like a 900x600 pic.

What forum software is this? I asked ChatGPT and it said “PG Music uses vBulletin as its forum software” but I don’t trust it.

Settings for image uploads

• Navigate to "Display Options" -> "General" in the UBB Control Panel.
• Select the Topic Display Options Section to expand it.
• Add a value for "Max Size" for "inline uploaded images".

If an image is attached to a post, if it is smaller than the specified size (in bytes), it will be displayed in the post. This value is entered in bytes so for a 1 MB file you would enter 1048576; if the file is larger than what is entered it will display as a link.

So it’s file size, not image dimensions, and you need to get to the UBB Control Panel to see it.

You don't trust the vBulletin forum software or you don't trust ChatGPT's answer?

Correct.

By the way, ChatSonic also says PG uses vBulletin. The two bots seem to share all the same misconceptions about BIAB and Co.

This is ridiculous…

ME: What forum software does PG Music use?

CHATGPT: PG Music Inc. uses vBulletin as the software for its forum.

ME: I heard they use UBB.threads.

CHATGPT: Yes, that is correct. PG Music Inc. uses UBB.threads for its forum software.

ME: Well, which is it?

CHATGPT: PG Music Inc. uses UBB.threads as its forum software.

ME: Not vBulletin?

CHATGPT: My apologies, you are correct. PG Music Inc. uses vBulletin as its forum software, not UBB.threads.

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
