I tried every article image resizer plugins, this is the best but i am having some issues still there is no solution for it. When i open system cache, guests see error image in articles. Also the support page is only russian.

Easy and good image handler but the generated thumbs looses any transparecy the original image might have had. Lots of options to customize in back-end.

I love this plugin. It is great for user submitted content on your front page. It keeps a consistent look, makes the full size image available, and eliminates the need for anyone posting to do an image resizing....very cool.
I am having a problem creating thumbnails for links to images that are offsite. Is it possible for this plugin to create a thumbnail for these?
I did discover the path to the error notification image (error.png).
{your joomla root}/plugins/content/jumultithumb/error/error.png
Just upload your own error png into this location with this name and you are all set. Very handy.
Thanks again for a great plugin.

Hello, very thanx for this great plugin! Cropped thumbnails miss in joomgallery. Cool job!

I was looking for a plugin that would give me a pretty simple functionality (or so I thought!). I simply wanted things on the front page to be thumbs, meanwhile the printed image/article image remained full sized.
This did that with ease! (I had tried a few others with less fortunate results) After initial install, I set the parameters and enabled it. It worked flawlessly and did exactly what I wanted to.
I'm glad I've found this plugin because although I'm only use a small portion of what this can do - I know that it can do anything I might need in the future.
This will be a 'must have' on any of my future sites.
Thanks!

well, it works, but made me quite a headache:
- lightboxes dont work at all
- with standard joomla editor there is no way to choose the image in the way you normally do, it seems this component disables the given option.
means you gotta write the path to the image manually, what is incredibly tedious, as you can guess.
- if the name of image in database contains spaces, error image will appear instead after the article being edited again, though the image itself wasnt touched, just text
- links to the 3d parties inside
all in all, it works better (almost ideally) with jce editor.

I think it's really irreplaceable extension, a must have for studio website. Good luck to author!

This is so far the best image plugin in Joomla! If you miss this, it is your loss!
This is great, very similar to Image Cache for another CMS.
If the error image comes up it's because images that were loaded onto the site prior to activation of the plugin weren't processed, Im guessing.
I will probably use this on every Joomla Site I build. Very essential needs to be in the core. Thanks for making this developer, I about gave up on Joomla being any use without these basic necessities, image thumbnail creation.
Could you make a module that's compatible?
Best

downloaded the plugin, installed it with no problems, and activated it...and PRESTO! All my images where changed into the standard error image. To bad the support is only in russian...and this was the perfect plugin for which I have been searching for a while. :( Oh well..

Your Editor for using?

This could be the best image plugin I've ever used for Joomla, but I'm not able to enable lightbox for the frontpage.

This is ok for the most part but it needs more work and is not yet ready for production site.
The image conversion is poor from what I have tested even with a 90 quality setting. It also needs to be able to convert to same file type - e.g. if the image is a jpg leave it as a jpg for the thumb as well, if it is a gif, leave it as a gif and so on.
Or better yet add an admin function to enable the setting of the file format the thumb should be created as either globally or for each section or file type.
The admin paramaters needs to be tabbed as it is too long, set it up into tabbed sections.
As said this is fine but not yet mature enough for production site.

Found the plugging very interesting made the mistake to install it and with it default setting made my site totally useless as it over-ride all my css. I has lot's of potential however I would strongly advise to run it on a test site first.
Also more documentation for beginner may be useful.
This one is to be watch closely to see what will be done on is next version.As the concept is great

This is an excellent plugin, however I am confused as how to create a thumbnail gallery in my content items, is this possible with this plugin or do I need another extension?
Thanks!
Thanks!
bygoldy68 on July 14, 2009
This extension works really nicely when you need a nice big image above the read-more line for your image rotator, but you need a smaller thumbnail for your Front, Section Blog and Category Blog pages.
Only problem for me is that any image padding we apply with our editor (WYSIWYGPro) is lost in the thumbnail version, causing text to wrap too tightly around a floated image.
I suspect I'll be able to alter the CSS to apply a "default" padding amount for Front and Blog pages, but it'd be great if it was a switch in the Plugin Management page.
Very handy extension!

This would be the best content thumb plugin but it doesn't remove the original width/height code for blog category. Although the image re-sized it displays with original height/width. Other plugins are remove this code. I'd write an e-mail to author but I don't know his email address and I cant write to the Ukrainian forum...

Please, deinstall other resize image plugins.
byOrsenfelt on June 1, 2009
This is a very good plugin. I currently use it on my user created content site and it helps so much with uniforming images in posts.
There is only one thing it lacks, that is a simple gallery support.
Adding each image is a pain to do. If I could just have a little tag like SIG does (I.E. {gallery}foldername{/gallery}) and it automatically pulls that folder and displays it all, I would be overjoyed.
Otherwise, brilliant!

The plugin is a little bit for the other.
But to write a plugin to create a gallery you can, but there are extensions of such plugins.

I tested this plugin recently. The author even forgot to pack up JQuery Lighbox folder and files, but the XML file try to install them at the same time.
Another problem is, this plugin will also try to generate thumbnails for my math equation images which were output by mimiTeX plugin and made those images can't be displayed.
I also tested another famous plugin MultiThumb, MultiThumb can automatically ignore equation images.
I think the author of JUMultithumb should learn something from MultiThumb, if it is possible, please take over the MultiThumb code and continue it, because that project seems been abandoned by its author.
For the equation image issue, you also can add a new option to solve it. This option is: exclude images with "nothumbnail" CSS class name.
Thanks.

It creates the thumbnails really quickly and loads up nicely but the problem is that it doesn't resize linked images. I had a lot of pics with the error image. If this got fixed I would use this in a heartbeat!
