First of all, I just want to say that I love the Carbon Theme. I really do. There's one thing, however, that I just can't seem to get to work no matter how much I try.

When a user goes to a photo page, I'd like them to be able to change the size of the photo (like most of the other themes allow you to do). Maybe I've set something up incorrectly or maybe I'm just having a 'senior moment' but I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to get this up and running with the carbon theme?

If anyone has any suggestions or can offer me a helping hand (and then a slap for being so stupid), it would really be appreciated. :-)

I suspect that the author of the theme did not want to have this option as there is a "full sized" popup icon.
It is interesting that the theme options still have the settings for various resizes.
Anyway, where would you like this to be placed? One can look at another themes phopo.tpl (matrix for example) and see how it is done and try to do the same in Carbon photo.tpl

Thanks for taking the time to reply, floridave - much appreciated. :)

I was hoping to have this on the photo page to allow people to resize the viewed image (e.g., 640x640/800x800/1200x1200/full size).

I'll take a look at another theme's photo.tpl but, to be honest, it's a bit out of my depth. Still, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Thanks again. :-)

Floridave, you are a god and I bow before your presence. :-)

I changed ...

Quote:
<div class="gbBlock">
{g->block type="core.ItemInfo"
item=$theme.item
showDate=true
showOwner=$theme.params.showImageOwner
class="giInfo"}
</div>

to

Quote:
<div class="gbBlock">
{g->block type="core.ItemInfo"
item=$theme.item
showDate=true
showOwner=$theme.params.showImageOwner
class="giInfo"}
{g->block type="core.PhotoSizes" class="giInfo"}
</div>

and it worked a treat!

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Grovel, grovel, grovel.

(Isn't it nice when you're appreciated?) :-D

Thanks, this worked for me too.

Now, is there a way to set the default image size. Currently, it's 640. I would like it to be 800.

Edit album-> album tab: Resized Images change the 640 to 800.
Then you will have to rebuild resizes.

Thanks Dave, I figured it out earlier by accident - lol. Which is strange because I tried it before but it didn't work. I must not have done something right.

I have another issue now. Since I changed the image sizes and rebuilt from the root down, the html slideshow has multiple sizes that don't work. Where can I edit that drop down? Thanks!!
