Mike Spike Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Hi everyone, I believe this is rather simple, but I seem to be struggling. Most pictures that are uploaded to my site (and I am sure this applies to other prestashop users) are photographed using a high resolution camera; but as the max image size displayed is 600x600px; it means that upload is slow and the image uses a high volume of unnecessary host space. **I would like the uploaded image to be reduced to 600x600px.** I can not think of a method to reduce upload speed (without creating a photo editing module, which be be great!!) but I have thought of a way to reduce host storage space. 1. After uploading an image, use the same re-size method that 'thickbox' uses (without the watermark) and save over current 'master image'. Unfortunately, I can not find the method that prestashop uses to achieve size manipulation (without distortion). And I am not too sure where to add the code. It should be something like: $image.jpg = image.jpg * reduced size Perhaps someone here has a suggestion? Please do not suggest to change 'maxImageSize' as this would only limit the file able to upload and not re-size it. Thank you Mike - http://DovJudaica.com p.s. A photo editing module would be fantastic! It would mean users can crop their images (so that they are square) before uploading! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Spike Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Hi everyone, I am still working on this feature! For the time being, if someone else is having this issue, I have been recommended (by prestashop support) you use: http://www.rw-designer.com/picture-resize It is a brilliant resizing application! If some [spam-filter] can help me add a line of code to resize an image before the watermark is added I would be extremely greatful!
