    Thanks for even thinking about this mod which I have just this afternoon discovered and installed. Incidentally, installing Pagesetter was pleasantly easy.

    What I'd like to be included in this module is the ability to resize images drawn from Photoshare. Most images submitted to Photoshare tend to be too large to sensibly illustrate basic news items taking up far too much real estate. If users use them without resizing them first the end result may be poor design and slow loading pages. We use a convention for front page news images of a maximum 280pixels width (approx) with the option that pictures in the extended text area can be larger.

    So the forced resizing of images and some way of admin being able to set parameters for size would be great. An over ride for admin would make it more useful still.

    Thanks again for a darned useful module, well conceived. I look forward to all future developments of Pagesetter with great anticipation. I'll let you know what the result is once I've played around with it which I'm just about to do.

    Hmmm, I cannot see any direct way to implement this. So you will have to upload images in all the resolutions you need and then name them accordingly.

    Besides that I want to implement a multi-resolution feature for Photoshare. With that one could make a Smarty modifier that lets the admin use different resolutions in different templates.
