Quality of thumbnails in the cache folder - molko - 2009-03-01

Hi

Is there anyway of improving the quality of the cached thumbnails ? My full sized images are around 150k-200k and the corresponding thumbnails are around 9k.

Is there a setting to allow me to get better quality from the thumbnails, its compressing too much for my liking.

Thanks for any help

There are settings on the admin options.

The settings you refer to, are they Options | Image Display | Thumb Quality ? I have this set to 100.

Actually I meant those. Did you try the sharping setting, too? That can improve a lot.

Yeah i tried the sharpening setting as well. Cant see much of a difference to be honest, but that could be becuase I have been staring at the same images all day long :-)

I just thought it wouldn't compress the images from 150k+ down to 9k, just seems a little excessive to me.

Thanks for your assistance, its much appreciated.

Did you clear the cache? Besides that I have no idea. I think 9k is actually a good size for thumbs. Less is more..:-)

Yeah i cleared the cache.

Yeah point taken about less is more...heh heh :-)

The thumbnails are 163x130 and around 9k....they just look a littl fluffy

Is there any files i can hack around with so that i can control the amount of compression/quality ? 25k-25k would be nice.
