Thumbnails in Bricks style look wrong

stockup

The thumbnails that show all the albums in Hypershot Homepage are scaled incorrectly and a lower quality image is shown. I increased the thumbnail size in the admin to 500px

URL example: http://www.stor.mx/

Tried the Slider option and looks excellent. Also tried regenerating the thumbnails with AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild but they look the same.

Hello.

OK first thing is that bricks are fluid as explained here http://apollo13.eu/docs/hypershot/#!/albums_menu_albums_list_appearance_bricks_theme_
but I hope this is not the case:-)

Your set width is 475px not 500px.
As you said there is need to recreate thumbnails if you change width of thumbnails so now you should recreate albumS-bricks thumbnails NOT album-bricks cause now theme is still using images with width of 320.

Try it and come back to me:-) If results still won't be good enough then there is always another trick in sleeve ;-)

With regards.

Hello,

I recreated the thumbnails as instructed but nothing happened, the site is using 320x480px thumbs even tho the setting is 500px

Hoping to hear about the alternative, thanks in advance.

Wow! Thanks for data you provided. It ended this way that there was error in our theme for half year and albums-bricks were using same size as set for bricks of album;-)
Anyway I fixed it now on your server and will add it in next release. Thanks for your help!

With regards.

Yup :-) Update is being prepared but it will take some time, so do below change:

Go to albums-list.php line ~95 and change

echo a13_make_album_image($post->ID, 'album-bricks' );

to

echo a13_make_album_image($post->ID, 'albums-bricks' );

With regards.

I've been reading , rereading, rerereading... you gave two exact similar lines.
I guess the update solved that, but for people that doesn't want to update because of some tweak..

Air

reread again Paul ;-)
There is difference in ONE letter:

album VS albums

And yes, update solved that:-)

PS. nice that you can find interesting you topics, instead of starting bunch of new ones!
