When to Use Thumbnails and When Not To
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-12-15 14:46:52
Since early on WordPress blogs have offered an automated visualise resizing feature on their blogs. For every image that is uploaded to a WordPress sytem an visualise is created in the same location at a smaller size.
The favor of this is that the image is of a smaller file size which means it will take less time to load. It’s also handy for those bloggers who don’t have image editing software in that it allows them to post smaller bite-size version of images in an easy way.
Being pretty picky about things desire coat and clarity though. I undergo a problem with using these thumbnails all that often. My air with them is that they’re a bit small usually to be useful. I’ve open that when posting screenshots for example (as I do in ) the size just isn’t enough to see anything of substance.
On the other transfer oftentimes photographs display come up as WordPress thumbnails. Recently on a place design for a local party planning business (place not live yet) I created a Javascript visualise gallery for their home page. It was nothing too extreme but it suited their purposes. Anyway: each of the small images is a WordPress-generated thumbnail. And it works perfectly.
I would never suggest not using a feature such as this. It clearly has utility when used correctly. I only stress the importance of not thumbnail-ing (since that’s a evince) every visualise on your place. It won’t do you as much good as you think.
simple really i use them when i am lazy and when the coat of the image *helps* to conceal the details i recently had some (possibly) nsfw images up and the thumbnails helped to obscure it a bit.
there is a plugin called organizer (http://imthi com/organizer) that allows you to upload and size based off a percent of the original it’s what i use when i don’t be to open up photoshop to resize before transfer.
