  • I also found this:

    stackoverflow.com/questions/9176633/upload-images-on-facebook-using-php

    Don't know if that could help me too.

  • Thanks! I have no idea how to actually use that script! :) ...although I could probably discover how with a bit of poking and prodding.

    I'd love to create you a wizard character! I tried DM'ing you, but the forum won't let me. Could you maybe DM me your email address?

    Cheers,

  • I am a graphic artist, yes! What would you be looking for?

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Hmmm, thanks for the answer. Unfortunately, just what I suspected! As I'm not a developer that seems a little out of reach for me. :( I guess I'm stuck with opening the image in the browser and instructing the user to manually download and upload.

    Many thanks for the assistance though,

  • Hi,

    I've just started using Contruct2 and I really love it. I'm creating a simple drag-and-drop game where users can create a composition out of a number of objects.

    When a user has finished, I want them to be able to take a snapshot of the game window then post the resulting image to their Facebook wall. I can capture the image with the Canvas Snapshot event and even open it in another browser window but short of instructing the user to then manually download then re-upload the image, I'm stuck.

    I have followed the Facebook Tutorial (which isn't quite what I want to do) but it did get me 90% there. I have registered my App at developers.facebook.com and I'm now able to use the Facebook object to open a 'share' dialogue, but then the final hurdle is the Image URL. When I try to pass on "CanvasSnapshot" as the image link URL I get an error from Facebook saying:

    API Error Code: 100

    API Error Description: Invalid parameter

    Error Message: link URL is not properly formatted

    Which of course I understand, as obviously "CanvasSnapshot" means nothing to Facebook. Can anyone give me any tips in accomplishing what I'm trying to do? Below is a screengrab of my current Event Sheet.

    Many thanks,
