give us a link and we might be able to show you where to save space (maybe you allow to large pics, maybe you set a quality level that is to high etc.). After all, you have to realize: having a picture gallery on the internet is a ressource-eater. If you have limited webspace, you'll have to reconsider running a gallery, or get more webspace. Remember: you can not have coppermine on server A and your pics stored on a remote server B.

Your full size pics are not much bigger than the normals, so why bother with them. You certainly don't need both, so my advice is to use the re-size utility to delete original size photos. This means you will lose the better quality originals, but will save a lot of space.

Your pic 04nats_118.jpg is 42mb, whilst the normal_ version is 35mb. Hardly worth the bother.

and it said ...
Deleting originals and replacing them with resized images, please wait..
The file albums/MM_03-12-03/normal_mm_03-12-03_001.jpg was successfully used as main picture!
The file albums/MM_03-12-03/normal_mm_03-12-03_002.jpg was successfully used as main picture!

QuoteThe file albums/MM_03-12-03/normal_mm_03-12-03_002.jpg was successfully used as main picture!

but it wasnt successfully used as main picture!

and now the pics dont show up(larger pics) :? :lol:

and i looked in ftp and only saw the thumb_ and my original pic

and on copermine when you click on the thumbnal it opens up but it is looking for the normal_04nats_118.jpg instead of the 04nats_118.jpg :?

Ok,

you have a problem that has a fix. You can either download the latest displayimage.php and slideshow.inc.php to replace your existing ones, or do this simple change to them both, as done by Tarique in another thread.

Quote from: "tarique"Replace this line
Code Select Expand
if ($CONFIG['make_intermediate'] && max($CURRENT_PIC_DATA['pwidth'], $CURRENT_PIC_DATA['pheight']) > $CONFIG['picture_width']) {
With
Code Select Expand
if($CONFIG['thumb_use']=='ht' && $CURRENT_PIC_DATA['pheight'] > $CONFIG['picture_width'] ){ // The wierd comparision is because only picture_width is stored $condition = true; }elseif($CONFIG['thumb_use']=='wd' && $CURRENT_PIC_DATA['pwidth'] > $CONFIG['picture_width']){ $condition = true; }elseif($CONFIG['thumb_use']=='any' && max($CURRENT_PIC_DATA['pwidth'], $CURRENT_PIC_DATA['pheight']) > $CONFIG['picture_width']){ $condition = true; }else{ $condition = false; } if ($CONFIG['make_intermediate'] && $condition ) {

Remember to do it to both files.

Yes do the remove originals again.

I suggest you backup your originals on your pc first, do one album only, and check that all is ok before doing the rest.
