4Images Auto Thumbnail? - Page 2

**nokiaxv2** · July 21st, 2004, 8:26 PM

Hey Jetweb,

you care to post that fix or maybe a link to it? I use 4images too and the thumbnail quality is pretty nasty.

Thanks in advanced.

In (/includes/image_utils.php) "image_utils.php" file, edit the following line:

".$quality." -antialias -sample $width"."x"."$height \"$src\"

Change the word '-sample' to '-geometry'

".$quality." -antialias -geometry $width"."x"."$height \"$src\"

Thumbs look great now!

I still can't get the auto-thumbnailer or the resizer to work. Anyone got this to work and you know how to do it? (This is what I get in both the Admin panels.)

Select module to create thumbnail.
Check module settings.

Oops... my bad.... I didn't have any module selected.... :o

So.... For the silly people like me....

Step #1, make sure you set it to auto-thumbnail.
Step #2, make sure you select a conversion tool. ImageMagick is installed on all servers, so you can use that.
Step #3, put in a path for ImageMagick (just below where it asked you what module to use). Supposedly the most common path is "/usr/X11R6/bin/convert" (source), although there are a few other common options that can be seen here.
Step #4, if it still doesn't work no matter what you do, email support[at]surpasshosting.com <-- This is the step I am at. *shrugs*

Good luck!

If thats the step you are at, you will be good to go than.

We shall see, though thanks for the support. Of course I get back the auto reply which lists the three Knowledge Base articles that I have already read. :P

Oh well. I will be patient and try to do something productive in the meantime.

Hi,

Sorry to bump this thread

I've tried using all the different locations for image magick thats been suggested, and none of them work, I have checked "auto thumbnail", and when I goto create the thumbnails it says

Quote:

ImageMagick error. Wrong path or ImageMagick not installed.
Check module settings

ANy ideas?

Thanks
LuLu
