Square thumbs redux
Sometimes we do the right thing in the wrong way. Many of you requested a square thumbs tool over the years. Unfortunately, we launched when it was a good bit less than perfect, and you were quick to call us on it. We should never have released ’square thumbs’ without providing an easy way to undo them. We apologize. No excuses, we should have done it better.
Thank you for your patience and invaluable feedback while we’ve worked to produce a better version.
- You’ll find a new feature in the Photo Tools menu that will change your thumbnails to or from square as you like.
- Checking thumbnails square/original under ‘look & feel’ in the Customize Gallery settings will change all thumbnails in that gallery.
- When creating a gallery, customers not using quick settings are offered a choice of ’square’ or ‘original.’ The effect is shown in the Theme preview.
- Creating new galleries using quick quick settings will default to squared thumbs unless you choose otherwise. Theme preview will reflect your setting.
We’ve posted more details at the Dgrin Square Thumbs Thread.
Watermarks: We’ve updated Watermarks to work similarly to the new Thumbnails tool. If you change your watermark settings in the Customize Gallery section, you’ll see a new check box: ‘Apply to existing photos in gallery.’ Checking this will add or remove a watermark from all photos in the gallery when you save the settings. Unchecked, the change will be applied to all photos uploaded from then on. The checkbox will only appear if you make a change to your current saved settings.
Slideshow: We’ve made some adjustments to our new slideshow to accommodate Adobe’s latest version of Flash Player. If you experience any difficulties, the Support Heroes are standing by to assist.
It is your passion that fuels ours.
