resize too large images
Brian Lacy:
Good idea. I run a forum for the development of an adventure game, and whenever people post background or concept images, it throws the whole forum out of whack for people with smaller screen resolutions (i.e. 800x600). I'd very much like to have larger images automatically resized to a maximum value -- perhaps a value that could be specified by the admin?
There's one problem though -- how to manipulate images that are located on other servers, and linked to with the [ img ] tag? Auto-displayed attachments are less of an issue since they're still on the server -- although, it would be a performance saver to generate a reduced-size image at post time instead of resizing the image every time its displayed. So maybe there ought to be a new directory for this -- something akin to /attachments/resized perhaps -- where any attachments or linked images can be resized and stored?
One way is a performance hit, the other way takes up lots of disk space. I say someone should make this a mod and leave it up to the Admin to use whichever method they prefer.

I suppose, but it doesn't make it open in a new window when its been clicked on does it?
