Image Resizer Good or Bad Feature?

Fangree_Craig please put your sig image in a public place ;)

It's a Great Feature, but sometimes the quality of some pictures is really bad ;)

All people did in v6 was moan about big images stretching the layout, now we fixed it people moan about resizing! I mean where is the happy medium these days? Folks think devs have an easy life? Pulease! :D

This rant doesn't mean i dont care :p

Im of the mind if you dont like it change it. better to have the feature in and remove than having to write the code yourself and make sure its secure and works with the whole site etc. huge sigs suck and im glads its been added :D

alot of images posted on my sites have text and when they are resized the text often becomes unreadable, perhaps a GD2 alternative, i think the option to turn it on or off would be MUCH better.

Click on the image and you'll have it in 100% width and height. It isn't harder than that.

:D:D:D Strange people :D


I like this feature. Now my forum looks better. :D

The image quality is your browsers job. We don't change the image, we only set width and height tags. A serverside solution would not work on the majority of hosts (due to allow_url_fopen restrictions) and it would significantly slow the loading of the site (up to 30 or even 60 seconds per image depending on the server settings) if some images are not available.
If you want to turn off the resizing, delete his from jscript.js:
resize_forum_imgs();
if you want to remove the span container which prevents the layout from being destroyed as well, edit includes/bbcodes/img_bbcode_include.php.

My forum doesn't resize images... just a container :/
What is the reason can be?

javascript is disabled or the images are not fully loaded

Images are fully loaded.. How can I enable javascript?

in your browser settings

For firefox: Tools -> Options -> Content (the tab), and click the checkbox that says "Enable javascript". And disable noscript (or make an exception for your site) if you have that extension. If IE, well, get a better browser. :\

Thanks but 47000 users' settings can't be wrong :)

I check default themes, it works..
My theme causes this... Trying to find the reason...

Can't say that I'm crazy about it. The people on my site are all well enough adjusted to resize their images. The images always fit the screen at a decent resolution. We're gamers so we're all running 1280/1024 or higher. It's been annoying me that my signature image, which will fit on the page without problem gets resized.

It's a great Feature.

Now my layout stays OK.

The only thing I don't like about it, are the scrollbars around the picture. thats hideous.
