Is it possible to change the thumbnail size for new images when they are added to a media folder? Currently they are generated at 100x75 pixels which is little bit too small for my current site.
You can specify a width on the Upload Datatype which you can find on on the dataypes node in the developer section. You can specify multiple sizes by using a semicolon . The filename will be [image]_thumb[specified width].jpg/gif whatever. The default size in the Media section will stay 100 * x.
When you are using these thumbnails in your site you could also checkout ImageGen. It generates thumbnails on the fly, not when the file is created, so when you change your mind about the size you only have to change the size in your template instead of saving all the images again.
Change size of thumbnail generated
Hi,
