ZenPhoto not making thumbnails of my 21mpix images from 5D

eirikso

I just installed ZenPhoto on my Dreamhost PS. Works like a charm and seems to have all the functionality I want. I love the possibility to control galleries with passwords and also the ability to control full quality download with passwords.

Seems like this is the perfect solution for me. With one problem:

ZenPhoto won't make thumbnails and scaled versions when I upload full quality JPGs from my 5D MarkII (5616x3744 pixels). I keep the image file size below 7 MB.

On my Dreamhost PS the PHP memory limit i set to 90M. Will ZenPhoto start making thumbs of my big images if I increase this limit even further? Or is there another limitation?

Please also note that the PHP memory limit is unfortunately only a "suggestion". The server can and often does allocate much less.

Thank you. The problem is the PHP memory then. On my DH-server it works fine on images up to 5200 pixels wide (18 megapixels). I'll try to increase the PHP-memory or simply keep my images under 18 megapixels.

Thank you for an excellent product. At this point I only have one important feature request:

Let me set password for download of full quality images on an album level.

Keep up the good work!

Have you looked into the image protection options? You can protect the full image as you wish.

What I've found is Options-> Image -> Full image protection

But as far as I understand that turns on and off full image protection for ALL my images. Can this be controlled on an album level? For some albums I want full image protection on. And for some albums I want it turned off...

sbillard

No, sorry. This option and the full image password are an all or nothing thing. But you could code your theme to use `getUnprotectedImageURL()` on the albums you do not want protected and `getFullImageURL()` on the ones you do want protection.

Thank you!
