[Item View] Make preview images bigger #121

Closed CathyHajo closed 11 years ago

CathyHajo commented 11 years ago

I installed the Pinstripe theme on the GVH site to get a look at it. I think that the view for an item needs to have a larger image. The image is small now, so you almost have to click on it to see it larger, and even then, it isn't that large. I don't like the idea of having to click through on almost every view, seems it would be better to provide an image as wide as can fit on the screen, with whatever height that generates.

gvh.aphdigital.org/items/show/1216 for example doesn't show the image at full width

Make thumbnail images bigger--500px? And then scale image previews in HTML/CSS

JonathanReeve commented 11 years ago

So it looks like this issue can be solved by changing the size of the thumbnails using the Image Resize plugin. Change the size of "thumbnail" to 500 and "square thumbnail" to 200, then check the appropriate boxes and let it run.
