Thumbnailer
« on: March 29, 2003, 08:38:02 PM »
Hello
My name is RenatoAlmeida and I don't speak English, only Portuguese.

Tenho o 4images instalado no meu server, atualamente estou busando o GD Bibliotheck para fazer os Thumbnailer. Mais a qualidade está muito rum. Está querendo saber como que faz para instalar outro programa como ImageMagick ou como melhorar a qualidade do GD.
Obrigado

Thumbnail Quality Problem

Hello,

One of the Moderators of this post pointed me in the right direction a while back.

Find the following file in the script directory.
/includes/constants.php

Open it up in notepad or what ever software you ues and find line 109, or where it lists the following information below:

Find the line that says the following:
// If you use GD higher 2.0.1 and PHP higher 4.0.6 set this to 1.
// Your thumbnails will be created with better quality
define('CONVERT_IS_GD2', 0);

Change this line of code: define('CONVERT_IS_GD2', 0);
To this: define('CONVERT_IS_GD2', 1);

This change increases the quality of the thumbnails.
Hope this helps,

Brian-
