I would like to see a checkbox on the Photoshare image selection pop-up window that asks the user if they would like their chosen image to be full-size or a thumbnail. If they want a thumbnail then the URL should be altered to return the thumbnail version.

Yep - and you also want to be able to override your selection in the template specification.

tjero,

if you are not pasting the image in the editor directly, you can specify this in the template. Look at the sample template News-list.tpl and see, how the image is referenced:


Changing thumbnail=0 will do the trick.

Thanks for the tip. I have been using it but I have what might turn out to be a rather unique situation. My client would like the option of adding multiple images to some of their articles. These images are ones that they load themselves into Photoshare. Some of them are rather large.

<dream>Ultimately, it would be great to see the feature that has been talked about in a few threads that would allow us to dynamically select the size of the image. So in one article it could be full size, in another it could be reduced by 25% or hardcoded to 100px wide, and in another it could be a thumbnail. </dream>

Well, it is possible to scale the images using the wysiwyg editor, but this of course do not change the amount of bits to download - only how the browser renders it. But perhaps that's good enough?

I did not realize that you could resize the image within htmlArea. That is a good work-around. Thanks.
