ian_adam 0 #1 October 18, 2007 Hi guys, I have a site where I need to upload images that people can download and use for PC desktops. This is simple enough, but can it be done by just uploading one image and creating the different screen sizes by adding multiple upload image transactions to the same file field? Thanks!

pilotdave 0 #2 October 18, 2007 Obviously image. Anyone that answers photo is a dumbass. I THINK you're asking whether or not its possible for a website to resize a picture for multiple screen resolutions. The answer is yes, but it won't be easy to do, keeping in mind that different screen resolutions require different "aspect ratio" backgrounds. So images would have to both be resized and cropped. It would be best to resize and crop manually and upload different versions. You might be able to find a server-side script/application that does what you want, but I doubt it.

PhreeZone 20 #3 October 18, 2007 In order to do it server side you are looking at having to script your page to intergrate with something like Imagemajik or another server based photo editing software. This is how a lot of the web photo galleries are able to have you upload 1 photo and they build a thumbnail around it. Its not going to be easy to do unless you already know your way around PHP and or ASP. There are some photo gallery software out there you can use to get part way there but your best answer is to do it manually. And Dave the correct answer is Photo. Don't make me have to get you banned from this forum for answering such an easy question with a stupid responce.

DSE 5 #4 October 18, 2007 I believe the correct response is "Graphic." Even knowing ASP...it's a PITA to do this. Make 3-4 different resolutions/aspects, then fuggeddabboouddit, IMO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dragon2 2 #5 October 18, 2007 I'd make one standard and one widescreen version, both as highres as you can/want, then let the pc do the resizing itself ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhreeZone 20 #6 October 18, 2007 Correct answer is to make a 4:3 a 16:9 and a 16:10 and then let the PC resize Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
