Hi, everything you guys do looks great.
My question is, can i use any size pictures in articles in order to thumbnails display correctly or i have to edit them to certain w/h ? Do i have to upload pictures to my host or i can use external links ? One more thing, NSP won't create thumbnails from regular joomla articles just from K2 articles. Why ?

Thanks, and keep up with good work i visit you every day.

Thumbnails are resized to correct size specified in the settings. You can use in Joomla! and K2 articles only these images which are located on your host with relative path.

Some of the pictures after they are resized get bad look. That is usualy with the pictures that have bigger H than W,
like this:
||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||
||||||||||||||||
and if in NSP thumbnail W is bigger than H
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

So this means i cant just upload any size picture and expect nice thumbnail ? I guess i have to edit picture first to have bigger W than H before i upload it to host.
And this is only with resized picture.

Is is possible to have thumbnail created to smaller size so the page loads faster ?

Sort of funny because I was going to ask this question. Basically what I want the thumbs to do is be the same size, by changing the css to display the thumb at a fix height and width but hide the overflow and center the positioning. This would allow landscape and verticle images to be displayed correctly no matter the dimision.

I've tried to do this before but I ran into a problem with the way NSP actually makes the thumbs. So has anyone been successful at doing this?
