Try to link an image and you'll see the difference ;)

Yeah it's cool ... sort of. When you link an image to a post b2evolution will resize the image to fit your skin (based on a param in the skin) and include it at the top of the blog post. That's the drawback to me - I can't tell it *where* to put the linked image.

Oh and you can link up to a zillion images if you want.

Oh and the resized file name is stupid because the path is stupid, but yeah it's pretty cool!

:oops: Understood

The thing is I tried with a text file ... It does not do anything

With a jpg => Much better

Thx

Make sure you don't set image size to the one of these because Adblock Plus (Firefox extension) blocks them
88x31|120x60|120x240|120x600|125x125|234x60|392x72|400x40|468x60|470x60

I spent a few hours trying to figure out why my 400x400 image was not displayed :)

P.S. you should only care about sizes if you use b2evo 3.x, you can't define image sizes in 2.x

Interesting info sam2kb!

In my 2.* stuff I changed all the image sizes because a portrait shot will resize due to height, resulting in too skinny. So I went with "resized height is double the resize width".

So it sounds like in 3.* I'll be able to pick my sizes ... and probably still have the stupid "file dimensions" as the file's final name :( I should hack that because it is so totally wrong, but ... uh ... yeah there ain't no way I can keep up with how that stuff happens. Too smart for me!

This may be obvious, but how do you apply a specific "style" to a linked to image ?

skins/_item_content.inc.php

// Default params:
$params = array_merge( array(
		'before_images'       => '<div class="bImages">',
		'before_image'        => '<div class="image_block">',
		'before_image_legend' => '<div class="image_legend">',
		'after_image_legend'  => '</div>',
		'after_image'         => '</div>',
		'after_images'        => '</div>',
		'image_size'	      => 'fit-400x320',
		'before_url_link'     => '<p class="post_link">'.T_('Link:').' ',
		'after_url_link'      => '</p>',
		'before_more_link'    => '<p class="bMore">',
		'after_more_link'     => '</p>',
		'more_link_text'      => '#',
	), $params );

Solved.
It generates a class named "bImages" which just needs to be added to the CSS as ".bImages img"

Thanks Sam2kb, I just went with editing the css :)
