Can we post links as mobilecodes too?

Just to make installing new cool stuff easier ;)

I'm sure I've seen sites that auto convert links in vbulletin to show both the URL/description and a barcode containing the link.

Pretty please?

lol - surely that's just using the barcode app for the sake of it ... but why not?

To be honest though, I forgot I even had the ability!

Maybe a barcode tutorial would be an idea to add to the HowTo section first?

True.

Just makes life easier than having to fire up the PC suite, connect the phone, download it, install it.

Just read the barcode, and install straight away.

I don't see why not... I'll check.

But it MUST include the written link in the post as well... This is important!

There are good reasons for this condition of use...

Agreed - sounds like fun.

Again though, a turorial would be needed for some users to take advantage of this (me included).

So, we'll mark you down for a contribuion to the HowTo thread shall we? ;)

C'mon! You've been on here long enough to be able to find the Search button! ('Barcode' is a good word to start with!)

Not at all, it gives a choice of which to use...

In any event, it hinges on an Admin decision.


P.S. I don't see your location, Spyda! ;)

The MAN says OK! Barcode-Links are permitted.

The proviso being that all barcode-links must be accompanied by... and must match the same written link included in each post. Deliberately misleading mis-matches may result in a ban without warning!

The above is for the benefit of members who may refer back to this thread.

I found that the hardest and most time-consuming part when I wanted to try the barcode-reader utility.... was finding it!
