imagecache

Looked at cachegrind output and image_get_info was taking a lot of time; called from theme_imagecache. My files dir is a S3 mount thus its a little bit slower. I did some local testing and if the file is local a cache_get is slower. But if the file is not local then cache_get is way faster.

I've attached a simple module that works; anyone find this useful? It works by overriding theme_imagecache.

Jag hade velat ha möjligheten att till varje Story-nod koppla en bild som ska ligga överst på varje nod-sida. Dock vill jag ha den avlång, kanske 500x100 pixlar och skickar jag bara in en bild medelst ImageCache så skalar den om och croppar bäst f-n den vill, vilket inte ger mig någon kontroll på hur bilden ser ut sen.

Jag vill ju undvika att behöva sitta i Photoshop eller liknande innan så min fråga är nu ifall det finns någon modul som kan hjälpa mig att croppa bilden innifrån Drupal och då även direkt från formuläret där jag lägger till texten?

Drupal has taken it pretty hard regarding its image handling abilities. I won't say that it's not warranted. Drupal 7 has really made some improvements to image handling. The instructions here are for building a simple photo slideshow in Drupal 6. The process would be different (read "easier") in Drupal 7.

Hi there,

So I've been reviewing this topic for the past week and I need someone to connect the dots for me. I have been using Image module with, Image Assist and Wysiwyg/tinyMCE for awhile. While I love the ability to allow my users to create image content nodes on the fly when creating a blog or story and insert it inline, I would love more of the image processing functionality that Imagecache offers; heard some of that is written into D7 core. I would also like the ability to allow those users to tag the image with taxonomy for use in the galleries that we use on the site

I was wondering about the way that images are associated with article.

When I use the main image/thumbnail image the files are uploaded to sites/all/files (which is the default path) with the thumbs going to a folder called imagefield_thumbs that is created on the fly. However, the template is trying to pull the images for the article from the imagecache folder so it displays a broken image.

The same goes for the Author image assigned in the author content type.

I am trying to build a simple image/photo gallery based on this tutorial: http://blip.tv/file/971610

All has gone well so far -- I have created an image content type, with an image field. I have specified settings for thumbnail and gallery versions of the uploaded images.

When I attempt to upload images, they are being uploaded to the following directory:

'/sites/default/files'
...and the thumbs are being created in:
'/sites/default/imagefield_thumbs'

However, the page upon which my images appear is looking for the thumbs in:

Sigo mi aprendizaje de Drupal, en este momento estoy intentando determinar cuales son las opciones en cuanto a imágenes para un sitio web.

La consulta es: se que hay módulos que permiten subir imágenes y en ese momento el módulo puede crear diferentes tamaños. Existe algún módulo que haga esto pero al momento de mostrarlas y no al momento de subirlas?

Que recomiendan Uds? utilizar image, imagecache, cck con imagefiled? Hablo de un manejo de imagenes para un sitio tipo blog con articulos.

Hi,

This should be a great news for all who are using Video module, yesterday I released a new version of video module which has several new features and bug fixes.
1. Now video module is using ffmpeg_wrapper module API's to convert / thumbnail videos.
2. All video thumbnails are now expose to views and you can use imagecache presets too.
3. No video_render.php file and now easy to setup cron jobs on video_scheduler.php
and many known issues resolved....

I've been trying to come up with a suitable solution for inline images for a while now without a ton of success. I'm sure you have had a client who wants to be able to insert images inside the main area of their text. Generally, I try to steer clients in the direction of using CCK fields for content images, but given the fixed nature of this approach, it doesn't work well for longish' tutorials with screen shots. Writers that use Drupal will often times want to use wysiwyg to get their uploaded images into the content above or near the focus of the topic.

How can you make imagecache play nicely with a site that supports multiple themes?

An imagecache preset typically includes a 'scale and crop' action to resize an image so that it fits nicely in the site's theme. Often, the themes custom node templates will reference imagecache pesets by name.

So, if you wanted your site to support 2 quite different themes, where the images need to be displayed at different sizes depending on the themes, what would be the best / most appropriate way of doing this?

As far as I can see, the options are:
