Picture test (auto resize)

Post by **vincent9993** » Fri Feb 06, 2015 2:57 am

Actual picture size is: 4256 x 2832 but should display in 800x532

It took awhile to load your picture 1-1.5 min, but it's all there. I went back and looked at some of Lee Hoffer's original pictures with the scroll bars and that is gone now. The whole picture is in view.
Thanks.

Thanks Mike, you are correct, the load times are long but it's somewhat expected because the source picture is actually the original un-resized picture with resolution of 4256 x 2832 and is over 6.5Mb. This is not the preferred method to post pictures (should resize 1st or use the gallery) but we wanted to test the implemented fix on auto resized.

Thanks for confirming the results, we're convinced the fix will help with the viewing experience.

Hi Vincent,

Nice picture! It still shows as full resolution on IE11. 4256x2832
Let me know if I can help in any way.

EDIT:: After I replied it opened the message again and it was resized to the desired size. I swear it was full size during the initial view, my posting and then changed when it refreshed after I posted my comment.

Vincent, I see that you downsized the file size for the pics I posted on the Laughlin run so they post faster. The web site doesn't automatically do that? Is there a way that I can do that when I post other pics?

The display will automatically resize to 800x600 to ensure it fits inside the frames but the actual picture size being downloaded is maintained. When you use the Gallery, you can use 'tweak' the link to choose the picture size. All I had to do was add: mode=medium to the image link you posted.

Code: Select all

From:
http://www.manxclub.com/forum/gallery/image.php?album_id=94&image_id=1415&display=popup

To: 
http://www.manxclub.com/forum/gallery/image.php?mode=medium&album_id=94&image_id=1415&display=popup

This will use a smaller cached version of the picture in the gallery and make them load much faster.

Hope this helps.

BTW: Thanks for posting all those great pictures.

Thanks Vincent. A throwback to my old coding days. But as I get older, I just look for the buttons now. If there is any way the webmaster could add a button to select that option (or even have it done automatically) instead of me having to add the text to each pic I'm posting, that would be great!
