BuddyPress.org

Genuine pause for thought – why does buddypress use a javascript image cropper to bring avatars down to size?

Why not use a simple auto-thumbnailer (there are many as plugins to standalone WP) and use css to control the sizes where they’re needed? Even WP has an autothumbnailer built into the media library – that’s why it creates 3 images on server for each one image you upload (which really bugs me – I KNOW what size I want to upload, I’ve already resized it locally BEFORE upload – quit re-inventing the wheel.)

Beddy-bies time for me, sleep needed, I’m getting way too cranky

Night all
