Album Addition Upload Changing Artwork Size

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I have added two albums in the last two days and noticed when doing an update to one that the cover artwork had been altered from the 300x300 pixels I loaded to 200x200.

Checking another I had loaded, the same thing had happened.

To get the larger picture correctly loaded I had to replace the cover artwork in the album update area. This is inefficient as it introduces an amount to double-handling of the entries.

Is there something within the upload area that needs to be addressed to get the final 300x300 sizing first time?

	Hi Max, This is still a problem. I added http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=20860 today via the Admin Section screen. The final picture had been resized to 200x200 during the upload. I then uploaded the picture again as an update to get the 300x300 output. Sorry it took a while to respond. I didn't have access to the DB for a long time with the change of access so was unable to verify what had taken place until I loaded this album today. Cheers, T.Rox Edited by T.Rox - January 01 2009 at 19:29

	Hi Max, I loaded albums from both the Admin Section and the link from the Band page today (for new addition, Cybotron). Both methods produced the same result, a 200x200 image that then had to be reloaded via an update in the Admin Section to get to 300x300 image. Is no one else noticing this? And have we got hundreds of recent additions that need to be resized to get clear images? On that subject, Max, is there a way you are able to extract to cover art picture sizes from the DB, along with the link, the album name and band name so that I could begin so kind of sytematic udating of the images throughout PA? Cheers, Coops (T.Rox)
