Big images

[geohei]

Hi.

I would like to publish pictures, which are have a size of 1024x768. However when clicking on the thumbnail (160x120), I would like to show the image as 640x480. When downloading, the image shouzld be full size (1024x768).

1. thumbnail: 160x120
2. presentation on the 4images site: 640x480
3. download: 1024x768

1. is no problem.

If I upload the image as 1024x768, 3. is no problem either.

But ... if the uploaded image is 1024x768, you can I scale the resolution down to 640x480 when showing the picture on the 4images site?

Hope this was understandable .

Thanks.

If I can suggest U something...

When u get some spare time. Start reading forum threads. That will not only help u improving ur 4images gallery, but also u will be getting a lot of useful info.

This seems to be what I was looking for. I will dig myself deeper into this tonight.

However my initial idea was someting like this here. Lord Nite shows the big size image already in the detail page (regarding the speed the image is constructed inside the browser, I believe that it is sized down somehow). This is contrary to the mod described in your link, where a separate directory is installed to save the big images.

Do you see the difference? If not, just let me know and I go into details.

I was looking for this already several times, but never found something which really suited my needs.

Hi Geohei.

In order to see the difference i have to register to the site of Lord Nite. 

And, if u want to have a better speed and at the same time allowing users to download big images, the link i gave u is the best option. Anyway , if u don’t want to use it, but still want to get a small image just like the site u gave me u can do this

go to templates/default/media and in jpg.html file
The only line is

Code: [Select]

<!-- Template file for JPG Files -->
<img src="{media_src}" border="1" alt="{image_name}"{width_height} /><br />

change
{width_height} to what ever u want like  width="550" height="412" .

This is the approach used by the site u mentioned.

I included the mod and it works great Thanks again for the hint.

But I don't get what this here means (at the very bottom of Chris' code modification posting) :

Open details.html and add something like this to use the new download information:

Code: [Select]

          <tr>
            <td>{download_image_file_size} [{download_width}x{download_height}]</td>
          </tr>

Please have a look at the 6th posting of the following link (by Chris)
http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=7499.0

I don't get what he means with the last "code" box :

Open details.html and add something like this to use the new download information:

Code: [Select]

          <tr>
            <td>{download_image_file_size} [{download_width}x{download_height}]</td>
          </tr>

Can someone please explain ...

Many thanks!

I found where to put it. It's in the template code.

But where shall I put it?

Thanks.
