Will the FotoBilder client ever support FotoBilder installations that aren't part of LiveJournal?

I have my own FotoBilder installation, and the standard FB client has stopped working, so it'd be nice if Semagic supported it.

do you know why it stopped? you can manually change username and server in settings to not match lj server or use several lj usernames with one fb account

I’ve now tested this a bit. As I mentioned above I don’t normally use WYSIWYG mode.

I’ve noticed that the underline often (always?) isn’t lined up properly with the misspelled word. It’s shifted to the left and seems to underline some of the previous word. This made me wonder at first which word was mispelled.

The display font is Times New Roman, which I suppose is just IE’s default for Latin text. Using Windows 2000.

Please provide exact text that you enter when it is shifted and when not and your version of IE (windows 2000 by default has 5.0, I mostly tested with 5.5)

IE 6.0.2800.1106CO (which should be the latest)

The text I used was the beginning of this thread. It looks like this:

The latest release of the client has auto spellchecker which automatically highlights misspelled words like in MS Word. Right click on underlined word for a list of suggestions or to add it to dictionary. It works only with WYSIWYG editor (and requires IE 5.5 or above) and should be explicitly turned on in Options (and MySpell dictionaries should be specified). Please do report if you noticed that highlighting is incorrect (misspelled words are not underlined or underlining is shifted by one or more characters). Also the latest release has Fotobilder client.

The words it’s flagging as misspelled seem to be spellchecker, WYSIWYG, IE, MySpell and Fotobilder.

Hmm. I am slightly confused on which version to choose. Do you have a version that spefically helps you change all yoru entries to say 'friends only'? I am looking for that, really.

Thanks in advance.

I am having problems with the Fotobilder software inside of Semagic. I'm trying to go to my own sever (photo.snarfykat.org:81). I've placed those settings in the correct spots. But when I attempt to retrieve a gallery listing, I get an error.

I think Fotobilder may not be using the specified port.

try to change between urlmon/ wininet and use tdimon from sysinternals.com to see where it is trying to connect.

It was set to URLmon, and tdimon showed semagic accessing IP:80 (not 81), so I suppose that is a bug with URLmon.

I changed to wininet, and downloading my "Security level" list worked. Downloading my "Gallery" list also looked like it was working, but at the end it just gave me an error "Error(Auth)" and my Gallery list remained unpopulated.

try this with urlmon. For some reason I was passing port number not after server name :81 but after /interface/upload:81. Error Auth: means error with initial request to get challenge which is the same for all FB requests, maybe the server was down, try several times.

how do you delete ALL the entries from the journal without deleting the account with this program?!?!?1 please help! THANKS!

LJ makes this impossible as a security measure: so that if your journal was hacked, the hacker has to manually delete everything, which would take him or her more time.
