Local picture directory vs thumbnails/resized images

Hi,

I'm searching for a solution to have a good web viewer for my pictures. (automatically preview resized)

Piwigo looked very good at first.

I already have pictures in a directory structure on my server.

Now I want to add all of them to piwigo - but I don't want to "waste" the directory with additional thumbnail or resized-preview images.

I read something about a plugin:
http://piwigo.org/ext/extension_view.php?eid=595

Which seems not to work anymore

And I found a issue in mantis concerning this topic:
http://piwigo.org/bugs/view.php?id=1350

But it's closed due to system changes.

So is it anyhow possible or even less possible than before?
Or not designed to support something like that?

Re: Local picture directory vs thumbnails/resized images

Sorry but you didn't really said what you want...

you said you want "automatically preview resized" but no "waste with additional resized"...
so what ??

compute the websize at every view ? THAT is a waste of CPU ressources

nowadays storage is very cheap, it's a non sens to want to save few gigabytes

Re: Local picture directory vs thumbnails/resized images

I think he (and I) wanna know how to use symlinks with the latest (2.5.3) piwigo. The plugin that already exists is not working anymore on this version. Is there another solution?
