Hello,

I'm using the module Max size, and am fairly happy about it.
There is only 1 minor setback, and that is that the exif information is lost. (as stated in the info page of the mod)

I was wondering, if there are plans to maybe upgrade this mod to allow the exif data to be kept?
Or are there any other ways to resize uploaded pictures and still keep the exif data?

With kind regards,

I was having the same issue with Exif data being lost. Switching my graphics toolkit from GD to ImageMagick (Admin->Settings->Graphics) resolved it.

I'm running Gallery 3.0.4, PHP 5.3.27 and ImageMagick 6.5.4-7.

Before I could select ImageMagick as my graphics toolkit, I had to append the directory path for the convert executable to the extra_binary_paths variable in Advanced Settings.
