Title: Files in albums
Post by: F@B on October 01, 2003, 06:32:29 pm

I want to know, which files i can delete, because there are always 3 versions of them...

normal_***.jpg
thumb_***.jpg

Or are all types of them important?

All three are used by CPG... one is for thumbnails, one is for normal viewing and postcards, etc.  the other is the original you uploaded.

They all need to be there.

if you're running out of space I suggest you resize the images before upload.
If you want to get rid of the fullsize pics after upload I suggest you take a look at wormie_dk's util.mod (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/coppermine/Util.zip?download) (will be part of the next release, currently availabe as download) - it has a function to delete the fullsize pics and only leave the intermediate size pics on the server and in the database.
