Get Image At Custom Size

Posted by Community Admin on 11-Jan-2013 00:00

I'm using the following code inside a repeater to get an image that has been selected in a custom module.

public partial class Controls_MeetTheTeam : System.Web.UI.UserControl

private LibrariesManager libMng;

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

libMng = LibrariesManager.GetManager();

var providerName = String.Empty;

DynamicModuleManager dynamicModuleManager = DynamicModuleManager.GetManager(providerName);

Type employeeType = TypeResolutionService.ResolveType("Telerik.Sitefinity.DynamicTypes.Model.Employees.Employee");

var employees = dynamicModuleManager.GetDataItems(employeeType).Where(i => i.Status == ContentLifecycleStatus.Live);

rpt_employees.DataSource = employees;

rpt_employees.DataBind();

protected void rpt_employees_OnItemDataBound(Object sender, RepeaterItemEventArgs e)

if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Item || e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.AlternatingItem)

var employee = e.Item.DataItem as DynamicContent;

var link = employee.GetValue("Photo") as ContentLink[];

var image = libMng.GetImage(link[0].ChildItemId);

Literal lit_name = (Literal)e.Item.FindControl("lit_name");

Literal lit_bio = (Literal)e.Item.FindControl("lit_bio");

Literal lit_title = (Literal)e.Item.FindControl("lit_title");

HyperLink hl_email = (HyperLink)e.Item.FindControl("hl_email");

Image img_thumb = (Image)e.Item.FindControl("img_thumb");

Image img_full = (Image)e.Item.FindControl("img_full");

lit_name.Text = employee.GetValue("Name").ToString();

lit_title.Text = employee.GetValue("Title").ToString();

lit_bio.Text = employee.GetValue("Bio").ToString();

hl_email.Text = employee.GetValue("Email").ToString();

hl_email.NavigateUrl = "mailto:" + employee.GetValue("Email").ToString();

img_thumb.ImageUrl = image.Url;

img_thumb.AlternateText = employee.GetValue("Name").ToString();

img_full.ImageUrl = image.Url;

img_full.AlternateText = employee.GetValue("Name").ToString();

Is it possible to get the "Photo" image at a different size programmatically? I remember in the old days I used to be able to do this by adding query string parameters to the url, but AFAIK that doesn't work any more.
