Hello,

is it possible to deactivate the image processing of couch that lowers the image-quality in order to reduce the image size?
I have optimized all my pictures with photoshop for the web already. If I set the image-quality to a lower level (like 70-80) in couch the images look horrible, because they're already optimized. However If I choose a quality level of 100 the uploaded pictures are actually bigger than my original (optimized) images.

Best regards,
MGMT
Hi,

That 'reprocessing' only occurs in an attempt to resize the uploaded images in accordance to the limits set by you.

If you'd rather have Couch leave the images alone, simply upload images of the proper dimensions. No resizing, no resampling :)
Hi!

Unfortunately that's not true with my images.
I embeded the images like that:
Code: Select all
  
<cms:editable name='big_image'
    show_preview='1'
    type='image'
  />


If I upload my image with the couch filemanager, the image gets reprocessed and gets a much worse quality (I think the default quality value is 50).
Of course I can upload them manually via ftp, but that's not the idea of a cms.
Hi,

Please upgrade to Couch1.3 (viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7014).
The new version has this behaviour fixed.

Thanks
Ahh ok, thanks! Now it's working.
