OK, guys, I've found the problem. If your thumbnail is bigger than a certain max_size (which is set in our configuration files) we resize it to a new size, which is much smaller than that max size. We do this principally to keep from screwing up people's blog layouts, and also because people have a habit of sometimes uploading mammoth 13 megapixel images as their thumbnails.
The code itself is working okay, but it looks like our configuration settings could use some tweaks. How does 640 x 480 sound as a new max size / resize target? > -----Original Message----- > From: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Hudack > Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 12:09 PM > To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com; Jared Klett > Subject: Re: [videoblogging] Re: Blip JPEGs > > Got it.
