Hi Guys,

Images looks terrible on stream because of image resolution, How system calculate image resolution. I cant see if there is any setting for this? I mean does easysocial has any setting for image resolution or can we adjust this? Currently images cropped by system instead of scaling. Am i wrong?
I'm closing this thread. Create new ones to discuss further.

Hello gokhan,

We actually resize the image using css so that it uses a width of 100% to fill up the stream area. We'll see what we can do in the release so that if there's only 1 photo, the image size would retain as it is. This would only be a problem if your image size is much smaller.

I really need to buckle down and resolve the responsive vs small images deal. I believe there is a method to have an image responsive but if it doesn't fill up the container it doesn't get stretched. That would be the most ideal method. Unfortunately tomorrow I'm swamped with school work but hope to work with the designer on this issue next week.

When I meant resolve on my end, I meant give the designer the proper suggestions/CSS code. Sounds good Mark, let me know if my assistance is needed in that regard. After all CSS is my specialty.

Sorry to be late to this thread. I'm getting user complaints about the stretched image quality.

I'd strongly prefer that we have the option not to stretch stream images beyond their original size.

Thanks,

Dave

@Dave 1.2.11 no longer stretch small images. Give it a spin.

Turns out that at least part of the problem isn't actually image stretch, but instead bad thumbnail quality. Fortunately Jensen has been working on this today. So hopefully with the next release of ES this gets resolved. Keep in mind that I don't know if this will help former photo uploads.

@Josh I also think part of the problem is sites with really wide component area for EasySocial, perhaps a setting to impose a width on the stream image tiles would help some. :-)

Yes, you are correct. There are two ways of dealing with this:

1. Have a maximum width for all 4 images in a row.

2. Have space between each photo for big screens (as in the space is only created once the images are fully expanded and extra space exists). This requires that the images have a max-width (or their parent container).
