Thumbnail size issue

Hey everyone,

I have my index thumbnails set to a certain size but any images that I add to my gallery are thumbnailed at about double the size, which I'm guessing is the default size.

    svn version or official? How did you change the size?

    Sorry, svn version from about 4 days ago (downloaded at your recommendation - because I was having difficulty with non-generating images!). I changed the image sizes a long tome ago to 70 x 65 on the 'crop thumbnails' option. The thumb size is set to 100. I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

    Thanks for your help!

    acrylian,

    I changed the thumb size to 70 and it seemed to do the trick. Can you explain the mechanism there? Should the thumb size always be the same as the crop thumbnail option?

    Thumbnails are cached, so there may be some created before your changed the sizees. Purge the cache so that all are regenerated.

    Thanks, that at least made all of the sizes consistent!

    What I find though is that "thumb size" now over-rides "crop thumbnails". Also, if I set "thumb size" to 100 and "crop thumbnails" to 70x65 then the album thumbs stay at 100 while the image thumbs become 70x65. Is that right? I'm fine with it as long as the image thumbs don't suddenly become 100.

    Well, we needed to change some things for the coming custom crop feature. Generally I would recommend that you set the thumbsize to the value that the longest side of your thumb crop should have.
    So for 70x65 crops set thumbsize to 70, too.

    Will do. As always, thanks for your help!
