babakm5 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hi, how does the "picture enlargment" function work on these websites? I mean I have tried to fix that by putting smaller pictures but it didnt enlarge more than the original size and when I switched it to bigger size pictures, it would NOT look good on the website as the pictures are too big in their original sizes before enlargment I mean!!! :( appreciate as usual :) thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisW123 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I always used a large image, say 500 x 400, for the large picture and then the website would size that down for when it shows thumbnails. Did you setup the thumbnail settings in Admin setup? I forget which category it is (near the top). Maybe you haven't set that up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisW123 Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 I don't have all of those, but here's my settings which work good for me: Small image width: 150 Small image height: 120 Now, these settings assume that your large image will have the same "aspect ratio" of 150 x 120, such as 450 x 360. If your original image does not have the same aspect ratio, it may look funny as a thumbnail. I think I also added some code to flip the demensions if the input image if it's portrait. The aspect ratio is always the same, but if portrait (360 x 450, as opposed to 450 x 360) my code would know this and swap the demensions. Subcategory image width: 100 Subcategory image height: 80 Calculate image size: true Image required: true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
