AlexWebsites Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I see a few topics about image sizes and I'm not sure I'm using the optimal settings in Gallery. My sizes might be carried over from older upgraded versions. If you run Gallery, what are you using for your sizes? This is what I have currently: There is also a setting for However, mine are rectangle and probably because of my low thumbnail size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 (1) I'm not a fan of square thumbnails personally, but to each their own. (2) You only have two sizes available in 4.3, and the defaults are 1600x1200 for large images and 600x600 for small (note that this does not make the image square - it means the width and the height cannot exceed 600 so the image will be resized to fit within those constraints while retaining its width/height ratio, unless you enable square thumbnails) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question not only for you, but for anyone that have upgraded to 4.3 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 When you change the settings, you will be asked/prompted at that point in time if you want to rebuild your images or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats fine. But the initial rebuild during upgrade is made with the settings you mentioned or the old settings are preserved with simply removing thumbnail and medium?
