On paper it seems to be the perfect plugin.
I installed it and it even then looked perfect. An enormous amount of options!!!

But, this plugin slowed down my site enormously.
And I did check it by activating/deactivating this plugin.
A page with 5 pictures was slowed down it seems to be offline: it took in between 8 to 10 seconds to load

I did uninstall this plugin and I'm going to look for another plugin. Sadly because this plugin has everything I was looking for.

I'll be back and installing this plugin when this bug is repaired. But for the time being, I'm going elsewhere....

No way to have it work... Too bad... It looks gorgeous on the papaer, but absolutely nothing happens... Thumnails are not being created.
Too bad !

Functionality is great, but if support was non-existsant then your investment isnt worth its time.

I messed around with this since its inception and couldnt get it working. Even with J1.5 there is even less documentation.

If you managed to get this working, congrats. Youve done better than most of us.

Search for multithumb instead. Not as many features, but at least it works

Many many thanks for this bot! I love it!

But a question: I publish it and now all the articles have thumbs. Can I activate the bot just for certain articles?

Just installed it, there's sooo many options !

I've published the plugin, tried to add a new article, but the image still have the same original size...
All my image content has not changed on the site...

Still think it must be a very good bot !

Just one thing, it could be great to choose the size of images for each categories or sections, that will make it a perfect bot ! (+ if I can make it work... ;) )
