When my intermediate image size for image processing is set at 1024 in the admin config panel, and i upload a 1024*768 resolution jpeg. Coppermine does not resample the image at the set jpeg image quality (e.g. 80%).
so, an image of 1024 * 768 remains +- 350 kb, when it could be +- 130 kb at 80% quality.
Is there a fix for this, or could this be a new feature in future releases?
Thanks,
W.
Currently Coppermine doesn't resize original images. That setting is only used when creating intermediate images and thumbnails. Intermediate images are only created when the image dimensions are larger than the width/height/max aspect (in the config options). If you have width as the determining factor, then 1024=1024 and no intermediate image is created.
1.4 has an admin option that, during the upload process, resizes images that are larger than allowed.
Thanks for the info, i modded the util.php class to add a 'resample original photo at 80% quality' option
It works fine and saves me a lot of diskspace.
Thanks again
