maxsports Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Can anyone point out where I should modify to change the picture size of sub-category? It is too tiny, will prefer bigger pictures. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Butter Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Weird! My sub-category pics are WAY too big! I hope someone can help with where to change the size. Example of Huge Sub-category image The thumbnail or gallery size would probably work for me, but it sounds like maxsports needs the full size image.

Guest mrdave Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Hi im also trying to fix the size of the thumbnail generated for the subcategory. they are coming out at no bigger than 70 pixels high and i need it much more than that to scale up, there seems to be no control over thumbnail size. Whilst i can see in the code where the category images and product images are coming from. im not sure where to change the sub category image size, it is always resized too small, its not css as the view image file is originally tiny.. all other images are fine.. any ideas.. cant wait for some documentation. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Viola Posted October 11, 2011 Share Posted October 11, 2011 Images sizes are set in the config.xml file of whichever skin you're using. It's the following lines of code (copied from Vanilla): <images> <!-- Common --> <image reference="thumbnail" maximum="140" quality="75" default="noimage_thumbnail.png" /> <!-- Category Page --> <image reference="category" maximum="580" quality="100" default="" /><!-- Doesnt need a default --> <image reference="subcategory" maximum="75" quality="70" default="noimage_subcategory.png" /> <!-- Product Page --> <image reference="gallery" maximum="45" quality="60" default="noimage_gallery.png" /> <image reference="normal" maximum="270" quality="90" default="noimage_normal.png" /> <image reference="enlarge" maximum="600" quality="90" default="" /><!-- Doesnt need a default --> <!-- Possible names (sizes): thumbnail (138), product(300-ish), enlarged (big), zoom (bigger, poss. source?) --> <!-- These are the ones currently in use --> <image reference="small" maximum="116" quality="75" default="noimage_thumbnail.png" /> <image reference="medium" maximum="270" quality="80" default="noimage_normal.png" /> <image reference="large" maximum="600" quality="80" default="" /><!-- Doesnt need a default --> </images> The value for "maximum" is the max width/height of the image in pixels. Despite the comment <!-- These are the ones currently in use --> above the last three, I'm fairly sure the rest of them are also in use. I haven't done any experimenting myself though.

Guest Tharina Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I tried resizing the images in the style sheet which makes them bigger, but then they're pixelated as if the image loaded was too small (which it's not). I also tried changing the config file - nothing is working.

Ms Holly Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Thank you this also helped me to increase my subcategory images. But now they are all cramped ontop of each other. How would I space them out? thanks Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
