I saw this personally at elPeriodico (the new design), so Carlos, please
tell us all how you did it (it's based on Raed's scripts, no?).

Greetings everyone,

we have looking for some solution for managing pictures in Campsite
articles... currently we are not using editor for inserting image, but
using image numbers in templates so pictures needs to be prepared for
that(e.g. thumbnail is always 1, and large version is always 2, so we
print them directly in template without user interaction in WYSIWYG
editor).
We are currently looking for some addon/module/hack for campsite that
will automaticaly create image thumbnail, when large version is uploaded
via interface. So user will insert large image, and thumbnail will be
automaticaly generated and linked to article where large image was
uploaded.

We would like to hear how do you deal images besides WYSIWYG.

We heard that El Periodico has some solution so we would like to hear it
too...

Thanks in advance
Slobodan Gogic

Micz,

elPeriodico has made everything work within Campsite as is, no ugly
workarounds. This is why I'd like Carlos to come forth and tell us how he
has done it.

hi slobodan,

possibly it makes sense to see if you can break into an existing
development. for example, take a look at this plugin for wordpress:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/
they have a few very nice features. i like the workflow, too.

ideally you install wordpress
http://wordpress.org/download/
and play a bit with the plugin.

here is a howto:

Hi,
We used the Read's script: Thumbnail Generator, and make some changes to
add some options we required. Attached to this email the original ZIP
file with the instructions how to use, and another ZIP with the new file
image.php we modify to used as function in the php.

Basically the modify we made it's add a limit of size depend of Max
Height or Max Width send it in the "article_thumbs" function. Example:

article_thumbs ($NrArticle,1,"","",200,190);
?>

"1" its the number of image attached to the article, 200 it's the Max
Width and 190 it's the Max Height. This is because some pictures are to
long vertically or horizontally and can break your design if you don't
use a limit for each value. The original file just make a thumb
proportionally with a value (width or height).

Also print the "true" source file in the img tag, example:

The original file print:
alt="my image" />

If you see its a URL and any person can acces to this and chance the
values "w" or "h" and generate another thumbs, and will save in your
server. Maybe a person can do a script to access automatically to this
URL with random values to generate thumb and saturate your hard drive.
Maybe its a little exaggerated, but just in case

With the new file only print the source file was generate, example:


With this nobody can generate thumbs in your site, and create valid code
for the W3C

Well, this is basically the changes for the script. Let me know it's
works for you.
