Just wondering how difficult this is to implement so after clicking on View full image you get this new page with the image in the center.

Thanks in advance

...a new thread! how refreshing

not very difficult at all. just means linking to a formatted page to house the image rather than just to the image itself. I never bothered before because I figured if your image was big enough to need a "full view" link, then it was probably to big to bother with centering or anything like that.

How hard would it be to make the link on the resized picture link to the fullsize image in a new window, instead of sending you back to the gallery page?

Also comments on images, will be great

Yes I am mental.

comments are working, just need to be running 1.3.12 and my cvs version, which you can dl. re links to full view instead of album view: that's easy too... a small editing job in the function inm_showImage() located in browse.php.

I don't think I'll put this on my list though. It would make the image link inconsitant due to the configurability of the full view.

It is, isn't it
I know it's not a difficult task and I've already started working on it however I got stuck.
Anyway I believe that something like this should be implemented in Inmemoriam. It's a gallery afterall and the way of displaying things is important.
Let me give you an example:
This photo is hosted in Inmemoriam
The very same photo hosted in plfoto.com
Now click on each of them and tell me which full view you prefer better.
I've already modified, in media-full.thtml, the call to full view image in Inmemoriam and changed it so it displays full image after clicking on the image, which I reckon is more natural way of navigating, and it's not open in browser window. Now I need to add some formatting so it is in the center, and maybe the background color is changed. However I got stuck here

centering the full view image is on my list.
It requires a wrapper file in which the img tag can be placed. that file will contain the style. The link will lead to fullview.php, which encorporates a template file for easy formating and the img tag with src leading to image.php?mid=etc.,etc.

as far as what is more natural... well, I think that is a bit relative.
My thinking: click a thumbnail to get to a larger image then click the larger image to get back to a thumbnail--just back and forth. The full view, if it is even allowed, should be considered peripheral (especially if it is no bigger than the scaled image as in your example). In fact that is why I relegated it to a text link. This ensures consistency in the linkage. However, if full view was never to be restricted, then yes, your suggestion to house the full view link in the scaled image would be fine--and then even consistent.

Thanks for your prompt reply

Any chance this would be in the next release

I would argue about this "peripheral" treatment
My point is that photos should be nicely presented after clicking full view, wherever the link is and no matter the size is.
A photo gallery is also about esthetics
Sorry for being such a nag

Robin, I think we are talking about two different things.
anyway, the full view will have an easy to format page in the next release--and the image will be centered.

k, I've been convinced so this is done.

Hi Guys, I've added the inmemoriam plugin to my geeklog! It's great. But i've got one thing that isn't working.

when i click an thumbnail in my gallery it tries to open
but that results in a blank page.

opening it with
Opens the full image correctly. What am I missing here?

Somehow i fixed it... changing settings back and forth i guess.. but im not sure

Found it! When enabling comments the page turns up blank. There is something about it in this tread i think...

comments shouldn't be enabled unless you are running Geeklog 1.4.
