Original Image Problem
 

I am having a problem with opening the Original Image in a new window.

Open Original in New Window set to yes
Save Original Files set to yes

In the Edit file types section I have 640x480 set to fit it in with the site. But when I got to upload a image bigger than the above size. It won't let me, but from what I have read on the site it should let me as I have the 'Original Files' options set to yes, as I want to have the original to a new window.

What do you mean by "won't let me"? What happens?

Re: Original Image Problem
 

nothing.... it uploads the image, then says done at the bottom left and thats it. I checked the gallery, not there. Checked moderated posts not there.

It works if I upload a image below 640x480 res.
But shouldn't it work if Original in New window and save original files set to yes ?

Re: Original Image Problem
 

What is shown on the screen after uploading an image that is greater than 640x480? You said it shows Done at the bottom left, but what's on the screen?

Re: Original Image Problem
 

it just stays on the upload page.

Re: Original Image Problem
 

How big (file size) is the image you are trying to upload?

Re: Original Image Problem
 

the file size is way under the default i specified.

And, just to clarify your specific question, it will allow you to upload any size image no matter how you have those options set. The difference is, if you have Save Original Files set to No, it will resize the image down to your specified size (640x480 in your case), then remove the original high-res file, leaving only the resized one for viewing. If you have Save Original Files set to Yes, it will also keep the high-res file available for viewing.

no, I can't upload any files above 640x480, it appears to do something, but it just returns to the upload page, without uploading the actual image.

What I want is to upload any size Image, but it resizes it to fit in with the forum design, then the user can open the file in a new window at its original size if they choose.

It sounds like your host does not have enough memory allocated to PHP. The GD library requires memory for each pixel of the image, and will usually result in a blank page like that if there is not enough memory.

ok thanks...

I will get onto my host and see what they say.
