| (...) I'll second that - provided there is an option to turn it off at my discretion. Like Kevin said, there are some things that it would be very bad to do conversions on. But the overall idea is good. Could probably save a good deal of space on (...) (21 years ago, 11-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish, FTX)

If you only want 128x128 thumbs you can skip the step about reconfiguring Mesa for larger images. Enjoy, Don (21 years ago, 10-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish, lugnet.cad)

| (...) Yup, we use it on Peeron and LDraw - though I was trying to recompile it (with a new patch from Don), but haven't had the time to figure out exactly how we did it last time. Doesn't help that the server doesn't have X installed - I think it's (...) (21 years ago, 10-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish, lugnet.cad)

So somehow letting people opt out of real name hiding would be a good thing, if it can be finessed somehow. (21 years ago, 10-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish)

Ideally, Brickshelf would actually resample the images when they are uploaded (with the option not to resample for wallpapers and such) This would save bandwidth, especially if BMPs were automatically resaved as JPG as well. --Bram (21 years ago, 10-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish)
