Title: Image Query
Post by: kali on September 30, 2005, 06:14:10 pm

Currently my coppermine gallery is configured to have three types of each image on it:
the original pic
the thumbnail (with prefix thumb_)
and a resized pic (with prefix normal_)

To try and save some space I want to get rid of the resized images and have the thumbnail go to the actual sized image. Particularly as the original pic and the resized pic are almost the same size.

Is this possible? I'm using the default configuration when creating albums.

from the docs:
Create intermediate pictures
By default, whenever you upload a file, the script creates a thumbnail of the file (file name with a thumb_ prefix) plus an intermediate version (file name with a normal_ prefix). If you set this option to NO, the intermediate file is not created.

Still I wouldn't recommend it cause fullsized pictures (if to big) may destroy the overall layout. However if you resize all images before you upload them.. no problem at all

Increase the width and height settings for creating intermediate images, then use the admin tools to rebuild the thumbs and intermediate images.
