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.
Over the years we've developed some techniques for practicing that we wanted to share. At Drupalize.Me we take hugging seriously. In this tutorial we'll look at the art, and science, of giving a good hug. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word hug as; squeeze (someone) tightly in one's arms, typically to express affection.
Did you know there are all kinds of different hugs that you can give? In this tutorial we'll look at:
- Defining what a hug is
- Some of the many types of hugs in the world today
- Precautions you may want to familiarize yourself with before hugging
- And the importance of proper technique
Lets go ahead and get started shall we?
