    cropped Images in content

    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:

    ! [enter image description here][1]
    
    
    [ 1]:  /media/1013/helloworld.jpg
    

    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?

    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.
