I have just installed Articulate and added a couple of test posts, so I don't know if I've missed something...
I took some pictures on my phone and uploaded them to the media library. I then inserted a picture into a post (Markdown editor). The image displays fine but it is using the original image which is 3264px by 2448px.
Is it possible to use images from the Media library in a post and "crop" them to a more suitable size?
Hrm, the markdown editor isn't the most robust in Umbraco and could certainly do with some updates - one of them being a feature like this for inserting an image.
I haven't tried this but this might work. When you insert an image in the markdown editor, you'll get something like this:
You can change it if you want but i don't think it will make any difference. The reason there is an Articulate specific one in there was because the core one had some issues. I think these have been fixed in latest core versions but i don't think there's any new features.

You might be able to append the cropping parameters to the image like:
/media/1013/helloworld.jpg?width=200
Ah, OK - just tried it ... and it seems to work.
Is it possible to switch to the standard Umbraco editor? Would that be any better?
