Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

Chriloi said

I’d like to know if there will be any donations for that as this may prioritize this little project in my worklist.

If your plug-in provides me with a means of cropping a square selection of any image in a TXP installation and automatically resizing it to a chosen width/height which is a persistent setting and saving it as a TXP thumbnail, then I am in too, say $50 US.

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

FWIW: Don’t pay until the plugin exists. There have been issues with previous in-demand plugins and others before.

I’m going to sit on this a couple days, and if nothing becomes of it I’ll work on ebl_ImageEdit again.

I said, that I don’t want to have any money before I release it. I have done several paid plugins before, so I don’t think we’ll have any issues here.

Let’s get serious: I’ll release a stable version within the next week, if there are some other users donating. Otherwise this can either take longer or will be released as Alpha, because I also have other clients waiting for their work to get done. ;)

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

So, I have implemented cropping, resizing, flipping and rotating. Support for gif, jpeg and png.

Image can be saved as a thumbnail, the original image can be overwritten or you can copy a link which will automatically apply all transformations on the fly (with caching).

Anything left?

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

Sounds great!

How does square cropping work, by holding down the shift key?

And once you’ve drawn the cropping frame, is it possible to reposition it by dragging?

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

I use JCrop (http://deepliquid.com/projects/Jcrop/demos.php?demo=live_crop), so the plugin has the same capabilities.

I’ll have a look, if there’s a way to implement square cropping by holding down a control key…

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

Ok, it looks like it’s complete by the end of this week.

Currently the image transform dialog will popup from the image detail site. Is there any need to have it in other places as well? What about integration with other plugins?

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

the only thing I can think of, and it would be undeserved luxury and not in any way anything essential, would be to integrate it with “lam_image_uploader”: http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=25301

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

Sorry guys, have to adjust the release date to next week, because real life came in between.

ps: Kemie, I like your illustrations & icons, especially the little creatures. Have to show it my daughter tomorrow. :)

Re: [request] image cropping / thumbnail generation

I will love if it will be possible to make a rectangle too (100×50 / 50×100)
Thanks =)
