Hi guys

I have a question- I am using JaSlideshow and have starting making banners for it. The original images supplied with the template are the exact dimensions of the ones I am making yet my image will not load successfully, and it seems as if it zoomed like 200%.

What is happening?? Does I have to have some special JPG compression or something?

Pete

It is difficult to say with the information you gave. Size in pictures can be many things. They have to be the same size in pixels as well as dpi. If you take the original pictures, open in photoshop, copy over the banners you have and save as jpg again, it should work. Otherwise, could you attach a copy here and it would be waier to see what the problem might be.

This is just strange! I did what you said and the same thing. I am not a dummy when it comes to this stuff.
ALL DPI is 72, same dimensions save as JPG both file type and export for web/device.

JaSlideshow is doing something strange. Is there a special compression profile type I need to apply to my JPG?

Hi Petermantra,

It does sound a bit strange. Do you maybe have a url that we could look at to see what the problem might be. Sometimes it helps to have a few people get a look.

Hey Sunrise! Good to see you here again. Ok – I will put the site up remote in a little bit, I am trying to work between a laptop and this.

Symptom: The slide placeholder shows big but the image inside is about 550px wide.

This is actually NOT A BUG. I just installed the template and ran into the same situation. It turns that this modules’s settings defauls the slideshow size to a smaller dimension

To fix it, simply edit this under modules –> mod_jaslideshow –> Parameters

Slide Width 890
Slide Height 340

Many settings are off by default(like showing the thumbnail.

Also you may want to see the instructions for setting image descriptions as shown in the demo.
