Image resizing within the CMS?

[mvlcek]

I'm new to GetSimple, and I'm wondering what support is offered for image resizing within the CMS.

As we all know, despite advice to the contrary clients love to upload ugly great megapixel images straight from their digital cameras. Those images need to be resized before they get inserted into a page. Does GetSimple allow for this?

In the demo I tried entering pixel dimensions in the WYSIWYG editor, but this just results in a scaled image rather than a genuinely resized image.

I also noted the thumbnail tool in the the Files tab, but that doesn't seem to fit the purpose either.

Is there some method or plugin for GetSimple that can resize images to specified dimensions, preferably from within the WYSIWYG?

Thanks.

For photo/image galleries I18N Gallery automatically resizes images on demand.

You could reuse the script pic.php in /plugins/i18n_gallery/browser for your own purposes, but you would probable have to make a plugin yourself to allow resizing from the editor.
