In March 2012, Flickr came up with 3 new photos sizes: “Medium 800”, “Small 320” and “Large Square”. These was brought to my attention yesterday and hence I have added support for the new sizes to Slickr Flickr version 1.41
Below are example of the new sizes.
Small 320 Slideshow
Use size”s320″ for the Small 320 size which is 320px by 240px.
[code]slickr-flickr type="slideshow" tag="sculpture" size="s320" border="on" flickr_link="on"[/code]
Gallery of Large Square Photos with Medium 800 LightBox
Use s150 for the Large Square 150px size and m800 for the Medium 800 size (800px by 600px).
[code]slickr-flickr type="gallery" tag="sculpture" size="m800" thumbnail_size="s150" flickr_link="on"[/code]
Hi Justin,
You can set the thumbnail_size parameter to square, thumbnail, s150, small, etc – probably thumbnail_size=s150 would work for you
Russell,
Thanks for your feedback. I’ve been tweaking the size in the function set_thumbnail_params().
I guess the only issue, affecting future changes, is that the fetched thumbnails from flickr are small. So, scaling up a bit upsets the resolution of the bigger thumbnail.
Is this a correct assessment? Any way around this? Flickr is offering bigger thumbnails I read. Is it just a matter of changing the request?
Thanks again Russell!
Hi Justin,
Thanks for your great question.
The current default thumbnail size is not set in CSS; it is set in code in the function set_thumbnail_params().
Right now you can only set a default size for the main photos, not for the thumbnails.
I will add an option in the next release that allows the default thumbnail size to be set to square (75 x 75px), thumbnail (100 x 75px), s150 (150 x 150px), small (240 x 180px) or s320 (320 x 240px).
Regards
Russell
Russell-
Where can I permanently include the size s150 to override default size in all of my flicker thumbnails for all gallery types . Is it in your css? I have version 1.43.
