Is it possible to programmatically/dynamically determine the size of thumbnails with BackLoad and JQuery File Uploader

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22870290

Question

I'm using BackLoad and JQuery File Uploader to allow users to upload images to a website.

But the thumbnails need to be different sizes for different areas of the site.

For example: When uploading photos into a gallery I want thumbs to be 180x180 But when uploading Mugshots I want thumbs to be a max width of 120.

Anybody know if this can be achieved with Backload? Or am I stuck with the one size?

Thanks a lot.

Was it helpful?

Solution

From what I can see in the documentation, there doesn't appear to be support for multiple thumbnail sizes. Personally, I wouldn't rely on BackLoad for creating your thumbnails, anyways. It's really more of a corollary feature for BackLoad, rather than something they really focus on, anyways.

Instead, use something for this that is designed for the purpose, like ImageResizer. That will let you create thumbs on the fly in whatever sizes you like, anytime you like -- much more flexible.
