Photo Gallery - Image Size

Post by airwaves »

I have read the many threads on this issue but I still haven't managed to get the problem solved.

I have installed Phoca Gallery
Edited the "Photo Gallery Options" Main/Images And Detail Window Size Settings
Changed Large image width to various settings to increase size ( currently 640:480 )
Saved settings
Uploaded photos.

But for some reason my photos are still rather small.

Can anyone assist me with this please :cry:

PS: Thanks for a great extension

Hi,
one stupid question first:

Did you change the 'Image size' in Display->Categories view to Large image?

If not, try it.

I'm just another noob at this but... hope this helps : )

Thanks, but that just makes the phot on the "Category Folder" larger.

I would like the photos within the category folder to be larger once I click on them.

It must be simple, I just cant see it :idea:

Hi again,

just checked the sizes of main pics you uploaded and:

http://www.airwavesireland.com//images/ ... feboat.jpg - is 305x215
http://www.airwavesireland.com//images/ ... ntic21.jpg - is 350 x 229

Now if I'm not wrong, these are the original images you uploaded. If so - they wont be scaled as they are smaller than the setting in the thumbnail creator. I guess it just doesn't scale UP and is meant only to create smaller versions of the uploaded images, not larger ones.

Try to upload larger images and see if it works.
