NOTE:
THe current content repository image type has built in thumbnail and other size handlers similar (but simpler) than photo album.

This works for any image that is stored in the CR with image or image subtype content type.

If you address the image with the image.vuh handler ie: mysite.com/image/${image_id}/${size_name} and the size_name is configured (there is a procedure for this) it will generate the size and link it to the original image on the fly.

Thank very much. What is that used for currently?

From what I can see, the {{yui-carousel}} includelet passes the full-sized image and the Javascript arranges the resize in the browser. I guess I would have to do the same if I create a new album view page that includes the YUI2 carousel?

Do you think the photo-album application should be updated to use this CR functionality rather than its own?

I cannot find a YUI3 carousel. Do you know if there is one?

Richard
