Title: .Gif thumbnail problem
Post by: locomotion1 on March 22, 2007, 05:41:27 pm
Hey. I been having some problems with the .GIF thumbnails from my gallery.
I currently have 2 galleries, with one the thumbnails display ok but with the new one i have they dont look ok.
Whren the .GIF is an animation the thumbnail created looks really weird and sometimes its much much more faster than it should(only on firefox).
I tried to change between imagemagick and GD2 but i still have the same results and iam not sure what else to do.

Thanks

Well I might as well also post it here. Iam also having a small issue with the resize of a table.
When you are watching a picture, where the filmstrip appears, the box/table where the name of the album is located tends to be a bigger than the rest of the boxes.
I attached this image to better explain, the table where it says: Home > FAN ART > Icons/Avatars > ....
Is there any way to make it smaller?

I tried looking in the theme. PHP, but no luck

any suggestions=?

There is only limited for animated GIFs by the image libraries that Coppermine uses (GD or ImageMagick), so this is a known issue that is not directly related to Coppermine in itself, but to the image libraries it uses. There's no particular mod or workaround to circumvent those issues.
Bottom line: there's little or nothing that you can do except not using GIFs any more, as they are considered to be outdated.

No, you mustn't. We have a strict "one question per thread" policy that you agreed to respect when signing up.

Yes: start a new thread and re-post your question there, providing a link to your gallery.
