Auto-Thumbnailing, Thumbs beeing too big, more than 32 KB.
« on: April 14, 2003, 10:28:53 AM »
Hi, my problem is:
The Thumbs made with the Auto-Thumbnailer are very big, like 32 KB. My Images are 640*480 these have about 80-110 KB. From these Images i wanīt the Autothumbnailer to make the Thumbs. But they are too big. They shut be like 2-3 KB.
Now i am using ACDsee to make the thumbs, but that was not what i wanted to do.

Any suggestion?

Please Help.
Thanks
Steffan

You probably have the quality of the thumbs set to 100

Try using a lower quality.  Higher quality = bigger size.

I think I have about same problem...but...not really...I think online tools are not the best to do any kind of graphic manipulations.
just an example, look at the description file sizes:

OK, i tried to put the thumbs quality down to 10, and then the pictures where smooth and not readable. The size is still 28-32 KB on every image. I think it could have something to do with imagemagick, but i donīt know what.
Please help. My Bandwidth is too high with that.
