We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.
This group should probably have more organizers. See documentation on this recommendation.

At its core, image handling also deals with files, so the FileAPI SIG will have content of related interest.

A few of the image handling items to discuss include: file storage, derivatives (thumbnails, resizing), image manipulation (cropping, watermarking, etc.), galleries, CCK image node.

New Module: Image Nodes Now Inherit The EXIF and IPTC Metadata of the Image Uploaded

From the MAQUM (Metadata Aware Quick Upload Module) project page:

MAQUM is short for Metadata Aware Quick Upload Module. MAQUM works with (and relies upon) Drupal's image module to upload images. Instead of uploading an image directly with the image module, upload an image through MAQUM and MAQUM will process your image's metadata and create your image node. ExifTool must be installed on your server as MAQUM requires it to read your images' metadata.

Not sure where it is headed, but if you have some ideas to share, join the recurring event on IRC, drupal-image on freenode at 11am PST Mondays.

Imagecache + Imagefield Screencast

The blog post on Drupaltherapy
Hosted on Blip

This screencast demonstrates the recipe for Imagecache and Imagefield (for CCK) to build a system for posting images on your Drupal website. This is a robust and flexible system for handling images and has a bright future with more helper modules born every day.

This micro-lesson depends on prior understanding of the CCK module and the Views module. This example uses Drupal 5 since the Image* modules for Drupal 6 are not available (yet).

No image toolkits found ?? can some one explain to me how this toolkit works?

I have "ImageMagick Advanced Options" installed. I go to "site configuration => Image toolkit".

it said "No image toolkits found. Drupal will use PHP's built-in GD library for image handling." I should have imagemagick installed. dont know why no image toolkits found. I remember other web applications you need to specify the imagemagick path. do I have to do the same thing here? if i do, where I am supposed to go to put the path in. please help me out. really appreciate your help.

Cross post: project outline and UI design for an AJAX powered image gallery

I just posted my outline and UI design for a new image gallery module to Drupal on the Raincity Studios blog. It uses CCK, imagefield, and imagecache, and has both galleries and images as nodes.

I'm looking for feedback on the idea, and to see if people are interested in having this built, either through a reverse bounty or some other method.

UPDATE:

some projects following this slides are now existing, see here :

Imagecache Image assist counterpart module

I propose a module that provides both an input filter and a widget used on the node edit form.

The filter would contain the path to an image file and the name or id of an imagecache preset.

The widget would allow the user to view images that exist on the site, and select which one should be inserted into the node body at a particular point, along with the preset that should apply to the display of this image. The widget would place the appropriate tag to be consumed by the filter when the node is rendered.

Make Themes able to generate custom images for navigation links, page titles, and the website name

Have themes that could generate images for links so that navigation doesn't have to be plain text, or be able to generate an image for the title of a site or page so its easy to change the title of the site and still have it look fancy.

This could also include being able to customize the image such as by:

  • adding an icon - this could apply to a specific navigation item
  • setting the text color or font - this could apply to a specific item or be applied to all relevant items such as all page titles or all navigation links

Image Manipulation GUI

Only local images are allowed.I've written a module, Image Overlay, to allow users to "draw" shapes on images with JQuery UI & canvas, and save the result as an image node. (Try it out.) Shapes are draggable and resizable. I've kind of stalled at this point, and could use some help, so I think I'll be applying as a student. I think this module could provide very useful tool to many drupal sites, including social sites (photos), techinical sites (notes & schematics), educational sites (maps, historical battleplans), and many others I haven't yet thought of.

My proposal is to expand and update Image Overlay:
EDITED to update timeline, show tables and added image of control and links to screenshots. EDITED on March 29th 1:15pm EDT, to add mockups.

Create new actions for Imagecache

The imagecache module is awesome now but it has only 3 actions: scale, resize and crop. My proposal for SoC is use imagecache 2.0 and the hook_imagecache_action (http://www.darrelopry.com/story/imagecache-2x-beta) to create new actions like:

  • Watermark
  • Rounded corners
  • Borders
  • Insert text
  • Insert image
  • Rotate
  • And so on

There are a lot of new possible actions, you can go to imagemagick options for more action examples: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php

Release Date for Embedded Media Field

Alex UA and I have set the date for an official release for Embedded Media Field, for next Friday, February 15. We're going to quash as many of the outstanding bugs as possible before then, and could really use some help from interested people, as far as testing and patching things up.

Once the official version is released for d5, we'll also begin development for the d6 release.

See http://drupal.org/node/213456 for release status.

sun's vision for handling embedded/inline content and Wysiwyg in Drupal

.

.

As some of you know, I've recently taken over maintenance of Inline and Image Assist, and initiated the Wysiwyg project. That was not only caused by personal interest, but also to take the necessary steps to realize the long awaited Inline API. You might ask yourself, what those three modules have in common or to do with each other at all: They deal with user input, allow to embed complex contents into a content, and provide an interactive GUI for that. If you already had the chance to work with them, you already know that there is a rather hidden, non-obvious hard-dependency between them.

Although I'd really like to discuss both topics (Inline and Wysiwyg support) separately, the gained experience on these topics enforces us to discuss them concurrently. The following mockup hopefully explains why: (see attachment to view in full size)

New view type: Image Gallery

This is in the latest 5.x-2.x-dev release of image. Existing galleries and blocks are reimplemented as views.

Howto Image.Module

I'd like to know the basics of this module, and how it fares against other projects. Actually thats wrong. I'd like to know what other projects are similar to this one, like Picture.

How do I use it? Do I place code somewhere or do I push a button in the html writer thing? Do I attach the file? Can I position the image with my own hardcoding?

What functions exist in this module, and what references does it take?

Thank you

Image API?

I just had a brainstorm this week for writing an Image API module, and see that dopry beat me to the punch :) Does anyone know about the future plans for this? Specifically, I was thinking about writing a form element for images, similar to how imagefield handles forms, because I've had to replicate that for a couple of instances, and think it would be better as an API, rather than duplicating code.

Thanks,

Feeding imagecache

Hello,

I have a module that fetches embed code for videos from a 3rd party provider and creates nodes on a per video basis. The embed code also comes with a link to an image. Eventually, the module will download the image (wget), store it on the server and associated it with the proper node.

I would appreciate help on how I could "pass" the images through imagecache.

Any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks

Giant Scale Image Viewer

This is to announce the release of a new image-related module called "gsiv" (http://drupal.org/project/gsiv/). This module wraps the functionality offered by the GSIV JavaScript component (http://www.mojavelinux.com/projects/gsiv/) for Drupal consumption. The component lets you pan and zoom with large images. It is still very raw, but it should work. Your feedback is highly appreciated.
