currently there is no limitation to file-size. the upload.php only checks if it is a valid .png file with a resolution 64x32.
if its not the case, you should get a error message: "ERROR: NOT a valid Skin file." do you get any error message?

Alt. Tester wrote:Edit: Oh and also am I suppose to set the Engine to something for the MySQL? or do MySQL use InnoDB?

InnoDB is a MySql Storage engine like MyIsam. InnoDB is a bit faster for fetching entries than myIsam so i choosed this one. but normaly it should not care.

difficult to say where the error is.Does javascript call the upload funktion? Does the browser sent it to server? Does the server get the file? does the server insert entries to the MySql Database?

Not sure if you'll pay attention to this post, but since I'm one of the various free software activists, I also consider JavaScript to be software at some point, specially for client-side/browser execution. And I have noticed that a user currently can't use that site without non-free JavaScript. I'm not telling to remove it entirely, just to release it as free software in a way that the machine can read.

We could address this in two ways:

Method 1:

Based on: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html

- Try to remove nontrivial JavaScript, that is, those which: 1. Make AJAX requests, or are loaded along scripts which do such things. 2. Load external scripts dynamically or are loaded with scripts that do so. 3. Define functions or methods and either load an external script (from HTML) or are loaded as such. 4. Use dynamic JavaScript constructs that are difficult to analyze without interpreting the program, or are loaded along with scripts that use such constructs. These include the eval function, calling methods with the square bracket notation, and any other construct than a string literal with methods like Obj.write and Obj.createElement.

- Insert data which tells the user (and non-free JavaScript detection software like GNU LibreJS) the license of the JavaScript being executed, as well as where to get the source code for the current script. Like using the multiline comments "// @source" and "@licstart The following is the entire license notice for the JavaScript code in this page. ... License goes here ... @licend The above is the entire license notice for the JavaScript code in this page." .

- If possible, we could embed the script in the HTML pages through server-side includes, this allows us to make it available through a single line, in all HTML pages, and focus on the JavaScript development, and still load it in all pages, but we must talk to the site host to enable SSI. It's better than rellying on PHP and JavaScript includes.

Method 2 (more drastic):

- Could make the site use only CSS, basic HTML and PHP, without javascript or images for menus or other important buttons. The user could of course have a button to load the HTML5 version of the site.

What non free js are you talking about?

Hm.... So it seems we just need to add the license and source code in a machine-readable manner.

Respectufully, Adonay.
Have a nice day.

I added now the information "// @license magnet:?xt=urn:btih:1f739d935676111cfff4b4693e3816e664797050&dn=gpl-3.0.txt GPL-v3-or-Later" to the website.
I hope your machine can read it. (I can not read it :-) ) Im using x3dom libwich is dual licensed under the MIT and GPL licenses. I cannot change their behaviour, may you have to add it to your whitelist.

Well... Perhaps a direct approach (since JavaScript itself is it's own source), where any JavaScript is executed, we could do:



Note: The forum probably broke the text indentation.

Respectfully, Adonay.
Have a nice day.

I found two skins that might make wonderful editions to this database:
http://www.planetminecraft.com/skin/splatoon-inkling-male/
http://www.planetminecraft.com/skin/splatoon-female-inkling/

Maybe its a problem with the u_skinsdb mod, but some skins uploaded by a friend don't show up in the sync...

are that skins visible on the online webpage?
witch program do you use to sync, the python script (.py) the .exe file or the .sh script?

The .py script, it syncs everything else. Just not bropower57's skins...

Anyone know of an MT compatible skin creator? Last time I checked Miners Need Cool Shoes was giving weirdly formated textures...

You need a skin editor which can edit older than MC 1.8 skins. Maybe an old version of the editor you mention.

Just started creating skins and ran into the issue I think was last reported. So MT uses the first 64x32 and not what the new MC skins editors are creating that are 64x64? This was racking my brain since found no mention of it after searching the web.

Thanks

Of course, once I post I find a helpful page. This explains the differences between the different Minecraft skin formats.

http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Skin

Using imagemagick, you could make a mc→mt skin converter.

Can you make this into a .zip trying add to my site and can't open .7z atm.

Sorry for my late response.
Here is he actual SkinDB is as .zip in attachment

This database is really cool, but the problem is it contains too much garbarge. It's a problem since mods like u_skins don't check what skins it contains and just use them all (well ok that's more like u_skins problem)

Yes, thats sadly true. I tried to solve that issue with the tags-system. My plan was to add tags like "Human", "Animal", "Mob", "withCape", "fromMinecraft", "Medival", ...
Then the fetching tool could only fetch "Human" skins, or "Human or Animal" but I had not the time to finisch it.
If somebody could finish it for me I would be very grateful.

sorry for the nude Sam skin

It's more a problem with monochromatic skins...

I find your sam really sexy

I successfully installed the script and SQL database.

Now, only question is.. How I have no skins? Since there already skins on it.. Really looks like as if the url jut iframe the original site.. So Is there config or something?

did you change 'var serverAddress = "http://minetest.fensta.bplaced.net";' of main.js line 1 to your server address?

Nope. but will fix that now thanks.

I uploaded a skin, but it does not appear on the in-game skins list. Is this some kind of delay?

Sorry for late answer, I'm on holiday. You may have to ask the server owner to sync the skins.
