Title: nelamurire (unstanding)
Post by: hgjf2 on August 12, 2012, 07:20:55 AM
I yet don't stand how the FRACTALFORUMS posting engine, put the certain images files with extension JPG_THUMB and GIF_THUMB and not as JPG and GIF.
The extensions JPG_THUMB and GIF_THUMB can be unsupported by WINDOWS and are not recognized as file extension
 :hmh:

Never heard of a thumb suffix. . .

and i also didn't see such a suffix :hmh:
thumbs are usually "thumb_xxxx_xx_xx_xx_x_x_xx.jpeg" where x is a digit (0-9)
images are simply "xxxx_xx_xx_xx_x_x_xx.jpeg"

so where did you see?

it is a common way to identify file types by suffix, some smarter programs do it by head checking of file, BUT if the suffix is corrupted somehow  with a "_thumb" added, it might lead to that a program of whatever sort may guess the file type wrong, but i dont see how this relates to the forums....

Fractal forums are evil and iterating randomly over extensions ;-)
