Any chance the hack at http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50882 can be implemented to show thumbnails of images that are super large?

Well, the only problem I have with that hack is that it does not resize the image, it just drops the width/height numbers to make it display smaller.

That won't help anyone and may cause more issues with folks complaining about slow loading (if they see the smaller image they expect the page to load faster than normal).

I am hoping that someone comes up with a hack that utilizes imagemagick to actually create a thumbnail. I am way too lazy to do it myself...but given enough time I may give it a go.

Keep an eye out for something that actually creates a thumbnail and I will install that with no problem.

But there is the issue that I will be going to vB3 as soon as it hits RC status. Already running it on a test server since beta 2.

I have done some image manipulations with imagemagick on one of my sites. I could probably come up with something that will work. I don't know how I would tie it into vb though.
