Rotating thumbs and midsized photo only

[christfort]

I find coppermine a great programme.

I presently use linpha but would like to switch to coppermine. However I have a minor problem with JPG photos that are not originally in the right orientation.

Is it possible to rotate the thumbs and mid-size photo only. I do not like to rotate my large 5M original jpg's and thereby loose quality. However it would be need being able to display all photo's in right orientation in the album.

When I use the rotate image function and choose save as thumbnail the thumb is displayed distorted and the mid-size photo is left unrotated.

Open pic_editor.php, find

Code Select Expand

copy($img_dir.$newimage,$CONFIG['fullpath'].$CURRENT_PIC['filepath'].$CURRENT_PIC['filename'])   ;
and delete it/comment it out.

Thanks for an excellent solution to my problem. 

As I use coppermine as a storage for my original photos on the Intranet, I don't really have server restrictions, but would like to be absolutely sure that the originals are not modified in any way. Which lines should also be commented out to ensure that coppermine does not resize during upload etc.

You have to disable the watermarking feature, set 'Max width or height for uploaded pictures (pixels)' for to a very high value and to be absolutely sure, set 'Auto resize images that are larger than max width or height' to 'No'.
