Image Resizing

Post by gazellio » Thu May 12, 2011 12:37 pm

I am confused as to why oversize images do not resize automatically as on most other forums including FFRR, D3 & Defender2???

Never heard of those before ;) but on here, the way the frames are built, images should be made to be 640 pixels to view fully.

I use pixresizer, nice little bit of free wear, can size one at a time or 1000.

It also saves people uploading 20meg photo's to show a screw. Now I like a good screw shot as much as the next guy but....

I use photoshop or Picasa to resize - the latter is freeware, the former is not (And yes my copy is 100% legal :thumbright: )

The photoforum I admin does resize the images to fit the frame - but that is not free software, unlike phpBB, so presumably has a lot more development $$ spent on it - though why it should resize on D3, RRS etc I've no idea - unless they resize on image upload?

pretty sure they re-size upon upload elsewhere (but not on here currently)

Images don't resize on upload still, but do now fit in the frame - on most browsers. :thumbright:
