Let’s talk about taking your image uploads and turning them into unique shapes with fabulous effects using the ImageCache Actions module.

We already know that being able to set a standard for image display creates consistency and a better user experience. Drupal comes with the ability to do basic image manipulation like resizing them. By downloading and enabling another module, ImageCache Actions, we can do fancy things to those images, making your display truly customized.

I am assuming that you already know how to create Image Style presets.

For this tutorial, you need to make sure the Image module that comes with Drupal Core and you also need to download and enable the ImageCache Actions module. This can be found at drupal.org/project/imagecache_actions.

In this video series, Joe Shindelar, Karen Stevenson and Michelle Lauer build out a job posting board using the built-in Fields in Drupal 7 along with some other contributed modules. They cover the basics that Site Builders need to know about how to add fields, configure how they're displayed, and using all of the different types of fields including file files, image files, term references, node references, and user references. Each chapter of this video builds upon the last as the team builds and configures two content types for posting available jobs and job applications.

In this video, Joe shows the finished project we're going to make together through this series. Later in the series we'll be going through the steps necessary in order to create the job posting and job application content types he demonstrates here.

This video will pair well with Intro to Views in Drupal 7, which will continue this job board project through to completion.

You can use custom image sizes for automatic display in your Views!

We already know that being able to set a standard for image display creates consistency and a better user experience. It also makes it for easier site administration because you don’t need to cut all of you images before you upload them. Drupal does all the work for you!! Not only can we specify what the image will look like at the node-level, we can also specify what the image will look like in Views.

I am assuming that you already know how to create custom image style presets, and are familiar with the Views module.

For this tutorial, you need to make sure the Image module that comes with Drupal Core is enabled and that you have already downloaded and enabled the Views module along with its prerequisites.

We will use the example of a blog, where we add our scaled images to display in the listing.

This video is about making custom image sizes for automatic display on your site! I am going to show you how you can create custom thumbnail sizes that can be used in your content types.

We already know that being able to set a standard for image display creates consistency and a better user experience. It also makes it for easier site administration because you don’t need to cut all of you images before you upload them. Drupal does all the work for you!! And we can specify the exact site we want to use.

I am assuming that you already know how to update the field display settings in your content type to select an image style preset.

For this tutorial, you need to make sure the Image module that comes with Drupal Core is enabled.

We are going to create an image display that has an aspect ratio of 4”x6”, but much smaller. Then we are going to add a couple other treatments to it so that it fits the theme of Photo Journal.

As we wrap up and review the series, we also look at other modules that work with, or depend on, Features to provide you a jumpstart.
