I needed a thumbnail generator with lightbox pop up of the original sized image within articles (not photo gallery) and have been searching for a long time. I'm using Joomla 2.5 so at first I thought Mavik Thumbnails wouldn't work for me. However, after reading other reviews which say that it works perfectly with Joomla 2.5, I decided to give it a try and it DOES work perfectly! I'm working on an academic project which is non-commercial so I was able to choose the highslide lightbox option which is responsive. Thank you for a nice plugin that works!
hi, many thanks to the developer of this plugin! i have no problems with AVG or javascript, but maybe i use other templateframeworks.
this is great plugin since long time and works with a lot of additional functions perfectly under joomla 2.5 - i dont know why it`s not listed here in JED as 2.5 compatible.

I have used Mavik Thumbnails on several sites since Joomla 1.6 was launched and my previous choice if image resizer was not available for the 1.6.
After an easy setup it just works with no intervention. I do not give it a thought from one month to the next; as a sites manager I could not ask for more. There are some tweaks that I would now like but they are just to make it better and even more flexible; that will be a separate email.

This is the one extension that i wouldn't be build a site without. It's just easy and works perfectly.

Nothing simpler than this. Easy install. Nothing much to set up and great results. Top job! :)
Really amazing plugin. I tried out many other plugins, but one way or the other, each of those didn't work for me. But this one really did the trick! I just tried my luck using it on Joomla 2.5 site, even tho it doesn't explicitly say it supports it. It worked great!
Thanks to the developers!

It's very easy to use when you understand it even when there are no very clean instructions. Using Chrome I couldn't resize the images as illustrated on the thumbnail so I just specified a width and/or height manually to the image and saved it. The plugin creates the thumbnail for you and adds a link to the original one.
Thanks for this handy extension.

I have been using this extension for several years - love it. Simple and works.
I installed it, tried to use it as it was written here but it didn't work as it should. Than I checked for something like a manual, website of the developer or the demo site. Well, long story short... couldn't find anything. Nothing like a "how to do". Just uninstalled it again.
