Picture Resize

[Guest]

I have a picture prop in my database region with the value of

<%=FP_FieldLink(fp_rs,"MyMap")%>

And i specified the pic size which works fine as well. Everything thing
works great except that the picture file quailty is very very high. They are
..png files with a resolution of 1920x696.

However, when they display, it is the correct specified size i wanted but
the quailty of it doesnt drop which causes a slow download. Is there a way to
create a thumbnail possibly?

Are you specifying a smaller size, or displaying it that big?

I'd store it at the size you want displayed, not at 1920x696, and optimize it prior to putting in the web.

And it would be best also to make it a jpg, rather than a png. What is the
file size. .. Optimize!!! Make your thumbnail in your image editing program.

The only problem is that the user uploads the image.

Oh, you're using user uploads...hmmm.

The upload feature I use on my portal has the ablity to restrict file size and file type...and warns the user if it exceeds the limits and wont upload it if it does. I dunno how it does this 'cause I didn't write it.
