Hello.
I really need EasyArticles to resize cover images automatically upon upload. and preferably create two copies, a small copy or a crop for the front page thumbnails and a large copy for the full article. is there anyway I can achieve that?
EeasyArticles is one of if not the best Joomla front end editor I have came across so far. and it being a front end editor it is perfect for end users and clients who are not necessarily tech savvy. which brings me to my next point. less tech-savvy clients tend to upload cover pictures of different sizes and different aspect ratios specially if they crop images before uploading them. Article thumbnails of different heights can break the aesthetic of the front/blog view and make it look very messy and unprofessional.
EeasyArticles uses the same image for category/blog/front page thumbnails and in the full article cover picture. This can dramatically slow down loading times of the category/blog/front page when many article thumbnails are on display. and for this a professional web developer can not advice the use of EasyArticles to his clients from a site-optimization/SEO point of view.
in my humble opinion, automatically resizing cover images on upload and having the option to set different image sizes for both the main cover image and thumbnail view image and perhaps a crop size option should be built in and implemented in a future update. this will make EasyArticles more attractive for professional developers and end users alike.
