Hello,

Try: localhost

Many hosting companies suggest this as the database server hostname.

Installation, Update & Configuration / Thumbnail Quality Problem

« on: March 31, 2003, 07:42:47 AM »

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,

Installation, Update & Configuration / This May Help

« on: March 31, 2003, 07:26:54 AM »

Hello,

I know this is an old post, but I recently ran into the same problem with my hosting company.  This info could probably help so many others that run into this problem as well.

For some reason:
/usr/X11R6/bin/convert  did not work,

But the following path did:

/usr/X11R6/bin/mogrify

This just points to a different file in the imagemagick installation.

Hope this helps.
Post back to let me know.

Discussion & Troubleshooting / This Trick May Help Using ImageMagick

« on: March 26, 2003, 07:09:20 AM »

I had the same problem using imagemagick.  I am running the latest version of it and
/usr/local/bin/convert

Did not work for me, however, the following path did work:

/usr/local/bin/mogrify

Just a different file name.

Give it a try and post back to let us know.

Hope this helps.

Feedback & Suggestions / How do I get more Thumbnails on Homepage?

« on: December 04, 2002, 08:32:08 PM »

Hello,

Is it possible to have more images under the new images preview section of the home page?  I went through the settings section and I was unable to find a data entry that would make this happen.

I would like to be able to have more rows of cells on the homepage under new images section. At least 6 images in the preview "new images" section.

Thanks in advance,

Brian-
