Enhance thumbnails quality
Is there any way to set the thumbnail quantity to a higher setting. I have seen the answer for the 3.X version but nothing for 4.X in any documentation or in the administration settings.
Enhance thumbnails quality in 3.X
Hello sacparker,
We use the same methods and algorithm CompositingQuality.HighQuality;SmoothingMode.HighQuality;InterpolationMode.Bicubic;
In 4.0 we do not have options to change the thumbnail settings. This is in our TODO list - ID - 110554
Kind regards,

Has this issue been fixed? I can't see it in the PITS.
Thanks,
Ian
Hello IanP,
We have not work on this implementation and it is not scheduled yet.

Thanks for the update.
It's a shame that this has not been done yet, the poor quality of thumbnails make the image gallery widget unusable at the moment.

Hello IanP,
Generally we use the best algorithm that ASP.NET framework exposes. I logged a public task for making configurations to the modes which were available in 3.x edition.

The default thumbnail images are of great quality. it is when you need something that is not of one of the default sizes that the image re-size algorithm is really low quality.

i have attached a example of the full size image and a scaled down version. I personally am not interested in customizing the quality setting. I just want the default to be better.
Hello Sacparker,
When an image is uploaded several thumbnails with preconfigured sizes are created for it (keeping proportions). The current default sizes are width=60 and width="120", "120" being the default one. You can either request an image directly (url.jpg) or request its thumbnail (url.jpg.tmb).
