EBL Image Edit

Advanced Image Editing Plugin for Textpattern

{Update: Pleased to Announce an update to this supremely useful plugin to make it 4.6 compatible with Phil’s awesome Hive theme you can download it here » } Hope it works for you, it is untested on a stock 4.5 release

Announcing the introduction of EBL Image Edit. This plugin introduces advanced image editing functionality to Textpattern 4.07 / 4.08. Users may now custom crop, resize, rotate, and create custom thumbnails directly within Textpattern.

This plugin allows for functions previously only available in image-editing programs. It allows for users, at any terminal which they’re logged in to to do the following:

Cropping: The original uploaded image can be edited to cut out parts that are not desired and keep only those important facets of the original image.
Thumbnail Crop: Make a thumbnail show not the entire image, but just enough to pique interest.
Rotate: For those pictures that are sideways or upside down. Users may rotate the image clockwise90°, counterclockwise90° or rotate a full 18090°.
Resize: Many digital images are just too large to be shown on the web. This option allows for excessively sized images to be scaled down. Built into the resizing function is the ability to maintain the original height to width ratio, so images will never seem squished one way or the other.

Ransom

~~$250.00~~

This plugin is being held for ransom. That means it will be made freely available under an open-source license once a total amount in cash contributions have been received. The ransom will remain open until it has been fully met, at which time EBL Image Edit will be released to the Textpattern community. Ransom Information can be found -here

And it is now released from ransom.

Thank you to everyone who contributed!

THE BLUE DRAGON · 2009-01-26 15:54:53

thanks for the release!

But I have a problem
the Thumbnail option doesn’t seem to work good
I’m trying to crop on 314×140
and I get some other sizes instead of 314×140
only the “Restrict 1:1 Aspect Ratio [square]” works & perfectly!
but if it’s not a square, and it’s a rectangle so it’s not working :/

Thank you Eric!

This is brilliant!
Compact and straightforward interface and it just works. That was so much needed.

Cheers Martin

That is the intended behaviour. If you resize without the restrict option checked, it will resize the thumbnail to the longest side. If it didn’t do it this way, then the thumbnail would be distorted. (e.g., images would be stretched/squished)

Example: I have a crop area that is set for 100 × 100, and I create a crop area that is 150 × 250, the thumbnail will be resized to 60px × 100px. The 250px height will be resized down to 100px, and the 150 will be resized down to 60px, a ratio of 3:5
