File rewrite 6 24 2010
Crazy… not you
I just tried it again and the behavior is as I described.
This is a ‘stock’ installation of CM 156, installed on June 8 2010
Here is what I did this morning:
Test 1
I took a jpg file and in Photoshop added some keywords, description and title.
I saved it at the maximum quality, 12
The file name is: CM test keywords c2l.jpg
The size on the local HD is 134 KB
The pixel dimensions are: 600 X 398
In the CM file configuration I have the following settings:
Quality of JPEG 80%
Max size for uploaded files 8024 KB
Max width or height for uploaded pictures 4500 pixels
Auto resize images that are larger than max width or height Yes: Everyone
See attached screen shot: file setting - test 1 - 6 24 2010 9-33 am.jpg
I uploaded to my CM with the Flash interface
The keywords etc are read and put in the database
I downloaded the full size file from CM, right click and save
dl from CM t1 - CM_test_keywords_c2l.jpg
The downloaded file is only 41 KB and does not have any meta data according to Photoshop
I also looked in the usepics folder to see if it is the same as the dl file, which it is
See screen capture of the folder, this file is the 6th file from the top:
userpics folder screen.jpg
Test 2
I started with the same jpg, drew on it in Photoshop so I can tell it apart and saved it at the max quality
The file size of this on the local HD is slightly larger than before at 143 KB
t2 - CM test keywords c2l.jpg
In the Coppermine configuration I changed only one setting,
Auto resize images that are larger than max width or height No
I upload and downloaded in the same way
The file after download is 143 KB and has the metadata in Photoshop

The file in userpics is the 3rd from the top in screen shot:
userpics folder screen.jpg
http://10.10.1.75/cpg156/index.phpA story from a friend that worked tech support in the time of DOS. He is trying to get the user to copy a file, he keeps repeating, “Type copy file.xxx” and user keeps saying “it doesn’t work” finally he says “read it back to me, letter by letter” and the user reads “copy file dot xxx”.
