Here is my site's gallery: http://www.garrettsites.net/gallery
I would like to know how I can take the thumbnail in the 'image block' (both external image block and the random image and most viewed image in gallery) and resize it using the HTML width="x" height="x" tags. My site's layout only has 119 px. of room for a thumbnail, but currently it is being displayed at 150px, because that is the tumbnail size. It makes it look bad. Can I edit some files and get my images to fit? I am an expert at HTML and intermediate at PHP.

This is easy to tweak. Copy modules/imageblock/templates/ImageBlock.tpl to modules/imageblock/templates/ImageBlock.tpl.local and edit it. Find this block:

{g->image item=$block.item image=$block.thumb class="giThumbImage" maxSize=140}

Change the maxSize to 119 and you should be all set.

Hi,

I would rather do it different without touching the gallery template.
What about
<?php @readfile('http://photos.brajeshwar.com/main.php?g2_view=imageblock.External&g2_blocks=randomImage&g2_show=fullSize&g2_maxSize=119'); ?>
