Hi Folks,

Quite a few of my clients have no idea how to resize images and therefore keep uploading 1Mb+ images while only displaying them at for example 300px wide.

I know there are image upload modules available but that requires uploading the images before using them in the Text/Html module.

So what I am thinking of is a scheduled process that would automatically resize any images over a maximum width/height within designated folders.

I could write one in Classic ASP but I wouldn't know how to schedule that in DNN. But I could ask my ISP to create a scheduled task but that takes time and effort ;-)

Does anyone know of such a module, or can even how to schedule and external task within DNN.

Many thanks in advance

Tony

Hi Tony,

If you want to stop the problem at the source, check out digMeta.  Your users can use Windows Live Writer to edit their Text/HTML modules.  If they resize the image to  300x300, Live Writer will only upload a 300x300 image.

Thanks,
Mike
