Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone could give me a hand.

First of all let me tell you what it is that I wanna do and then hopefully you can make some suggestions on how to accomplish that. I'm planning on acquiring a copy of phpLD and use it to put together a list of local schools and universities. However, it's essential that it's possible for parents and students to rate/comment on their institutions...

I found something which looks like what I need while trolling the forum... here it is in action *seems like I can't post an URL... this sucks. oh well it's on worstfoodever dot com, when you click on a review, then go to "comment" on the bottom of the page you can see it. There's a star-rating system and a comment/review one. Can anyone tell me what these 2 great mods are? (or maybe it's just one?)

This looks to be just fine for what I need, so if I can get these working with the latest copy of phpLD then I'm all set... Can anybody point me in the right direction? Or maybe someone has any other suggestions?

Thanks for your time and help :)
Cheers

Also, I've seen on blogmalaysia dot com that they have screencaps of the sites they link to... is there a mod that does such a thing or do they need to be done by hand for each link?

Thanks again :)

Ratings / Review Mods: There are a few around, but the ones I have used at both www.u-hits.com (http://www.u-hits.com) and www.awayaway.com (http://www.awayaway.com) can be found at www.monster-submit.com (http://www.monster-submit.com) in the phpLD_Vault. Not free, but a very worth while $15 for a complete package of mods.

Screencaps / Screenshots / thumbnails: Available in a LOT of places. This thread might help... http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/showthread.php?t=23494&highlight=thumbnails OR do as I do and purchase the screenshot processor that you run on your PC that creates all the thumnails for you. Great application and very easy to use.

Bruce.

;) if you view the page source you'll find :D
Content visible to registered users only.VSDan's mods are the most commonly used mods because they are reliable, they work, it's that simply and they are very useful :D as well they are supported and they work for all versions of phpLD

as for the thumbnails, if you wish to use one of the providers you are welcomed to pm me your ftp info which thumbnail provider you wish to use and the current template you are using and in my free time i can set up the thumbnail's for you

thanks shadav... why didn't I think of that :D

thanks for the offer to help out - I will contact you privately to talk more about that... I would like to have 2 size of thumbs, one for the category page and one for the detailed page... hope that's possible. Also something without any watermark would be great... even if it takes a subscription or a linkback or something. Can anyone recommend one of those?
