images stretching theme layout + how do you...

[muggzy]

Hi there people,
ive installed pixelpost on my server, check out http://www.slush.mintedmango.com/index.php?showimage=4

can you see because the image is so large it makes the layout look lame. I was wondering is it possible to make pixel post resize images that are view UNTIL someone clicks on them which then takes it to full screen?

Also where can i find, or how do you add little things like 'images view 30 times' or 5 comments so far etc?

thanks people

welcome here!

I understand that a new script is always giving a lot of questions, but it is not very helpful to pack them all in one question ...

read the forum messages, PixelPost 101 etc. and you find a lot of information


but one answer already: if your picture is too big, you should not upload it and wait until somebody clicks to resize it, because then the traffic is already generated

if you want to publish images in the web, remember you are publishing to a screen, a monitor, and you should keep in mind to post images in a size which can be transferred fast because of small filesize and which will fit to most of the screens

so upload in a size, let's say between 800x 600 and not bigger than 80 kb..

this is nothing special for PixelPost, it is relevant for all online-screen-publishing-applications
