Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
if you explain that feature more i will look into it (seems to be a nice feature)
do i understand it right, that you want to change the colors of the image maybe to sepia or blacknwhite or something like this?

More simple than that (I think :) ).
I just want the thumbnail image to be more “washed out”. In other words, turning it’s Alpha channel a little bit down, so it’s color fades a little bit.
Would that be simple or wold it require several changes?
Sorry about those kind of questions, but I’m completely newbie in PHP image manipulation.
Thanks for your attention.

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
i think it would be possible but not simple and need some time. i added it to the todolist.

Thanks, I really apreciate that.
Meanwhile I’ll try to figure out how to make it work.
PS: I’ve found about a GD imagealphablending() function. Looks like it’s the way.

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
As I couldn’t solve the GD issue I’ve managed to handle it, for the time being, with css.
I’ve anyone else is interested on the code, here is it. Just put it on the image id or class.
img {
filter:alpha(opacity=80);
-moz-opacity:0.8;
opacity: 0.8;
}

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
oh! thats cool. but how is ist with the implementation in various browsers? you have a testpage for that? i think filter works in ie and -moz-opacity in all mozes. opacity itself should not be supported yet. whats with opera?

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
It works in IE 5+, Mozila, Opera, Netscape.
It’s a vamp, though.

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
<font style=“text-decoration:line-through”>This must be a stupid question, but what tag do I use to place a thumbnail made with glx_admin_image?</font>
Nevermind, sorted that out.

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
Having some trouble with the square thumbnail feature.
When I first upload an image, then set it you resize the image and create a square thumbnail of a certain size, then click “Resize”, everything looks good. It shows the resized image and a squarethumbnail, great.
But then I usually need to change the name of the image, so I do so and click “Save”. Then, upon refresh, the thumbnail is no longer square, and I can’t seem to get it back to square anymore.
Anyone else run into this? Could it be a plug-in conflict? I’m also using <a href=“http://awasteofwords.com/article/wetarticlethumb-thumbnail-tag-for-textpattern”>wet_article_thumb</a>, but i don’t think it generates thumbnails or anything, just provices a handy tag for placing them.

Re: Admin plugin: glx_admin_image_resize
I’ve run into that issue too, Matt. It seems that clicking the “save” button will create a new, non-square thumbnail regardless of any boxes/options you have checked.
I get around this little quirk in the obvious way: Make any changes to the caption, alt. text or category — and save them — before creating a square thumbnail. Make the thumbnail creation your last step. Not ideal, I guess, but it works.
