Announcing: BetterThumbs Plugin

  • I’m proud to announce another code release: BetterThumbs WordPress Plugin (Follow the link for more details)

    The BetterThumbs WordPress Plugin creates true thumbnails for full-size images that are resized in the post editor, instead of just letting the browser scale down the original full-size image. This translates into faster load times and lower bandwidth usage.

    I built this plugin out of frustration with the way WordPress handles images that have been resized in the post editor. To be honest, I believe this functionality should be built into WordPress — it just makes more sense to create true thumbnails based on the dimensions the author wants.

    So enjoy and leave your feedback!

  • uhm, how do you say?…awesome!

    thanks, ill let you know how it goes!

    EDIT: working great for me so far, and it is impressively invisible (‘it just works’). this seems to be the most elegant solution to a problem i know a lot of people would like to fix. here’s my vote to ingegrate this into future wp releases.

    aaron, thanks for you’re hard work!

    Thanks for that.
