Mail is automatically resizing images

When attaching an image to mail it is automatically being resized to approx. 160 kb no matter what size the image really is. I can't seem to find any preferences in Mail that apply and Aperture export is set at Original size JPEG. Any clues? Recently upgraded to Leopard and iLife 08'.

Steve:
Are the photos also being resized automatically in dimension? You should be getting an window with the option for picking the size of the image to send, small, medium, large and actual size. Are you getting that window when you select the photo and click on the email button? Also at the bottom of the email window will be a menu button on the lower right with the size options once the photo is in the email.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Site that automatically resizes images based on browser size

    Hi. I need to make a site that automatically adjusts the size of the images based on the browser size, but keeps the image quality. Does anyone know how to do this without using flash?
    I basically want the site to perform like [http://www.shotview.com/|http://www.shotview.com/] . Thanks for your help.

    first time accessing website get screen size info using javascript and then redirect to next page and store screen size info into session. then, when requesting pictures from browser use custom servlet, mapped to image extension, that renders images to different resolution.

  • Fireworks CS5 "automatically" resizes images to minuscule dimensions

    I am having an odd issue in working with Fireworks PNGs from one of my subject matter experts. We have been using Fireworks since around 2000 so it's nothing new to us and it's been used in tens of thousands of images (we deliver eLearning to 70,000 people per year in 130 countries). We have 10 users and have been using it over a series of Windows machines over the years.
    We use CS5 with Flash, Dreamweaver, and Fireworks and typically it all runs very smoothly. But a few months ago I would open one of her PNGs (layered, etc) and whether I made any changes or not when I re-open it it has been resampled to very small dimensions. For example, a 600 by 400 pixel image will display as 16 by 15 pixels.
    This would happen with any of her images on several machines at work (*** CS5) and my home machine (CS5.5).
    We had IT remove and then reinstall Fireworks CS5 on her machine and all was fine for two months. Now this weird thing is happening again. It must be some local configuration file that is getting altered. I am at my wit's end trying to solve this and the only workaround I have is to open her files in Photoshop which works fine (but is not ideal since only two MMDs have PS and we need to edit callouts done in Fireworks).
    To recap - I open one of her images, close it, and reopen it and it resamples to very small and unsuable dimensions.
    Has anyone ever seen this odd behavior?
    Is there a config file I can delete and let the system rebuild? (I remember some flash issue, years ago, that was fixed like that).
    Thanks!

    Excellent questions! Thanks for your left-field ideas - this is a left-field issue!
    They seem to resize when closed but even if they are simply opened and closed without any changes and thus without actually saving. They do seem to always go down to the same size (not in proportion) and would be too small even as thumbnails (that was a good thought though).
    It may be indirectly due to Fireworks and be some combination of the operating system and/or other applications she may have installed such as Snag-It because a full uninstallation and installation of Fireworks takes care of the issue. It has happened twice and here's hoping it does not happen again.
    Saving the files as new files does not seem to help - she'll take her screenshots, paste them into Fireworks and then save the file to a remote server. I can open them from the server or take a copy locally, both result in the miniscule image after closing them. But only with her files. We have images from four other SMEs that don't do this "thing".
    If it happens again, I will more carefully observe the particulars you asked about.
    Thank you for your time and food for thought - I like left-field ideas - that's how we create new things in this world! =)

  • Mobile Safari on iPhone 3GS automatically resizes images to 1280x800

    Hi,
    I'm a new iPhone user and thus have had no prior experience. However, I've noticed that when you try to open a large image in Safari running on my iPhone 3GS, it appears to automatically shrink the image to 1280x800.
    An example:
    http://www.macwallpapers.net/images/wallpapers/Homer%20Simpson%20Apple-600960.jp eg
    This image is 2560x1600, yet when I open it on Safari on my iPhone, it registers as a 1280x800 image. Note that it is not just this particular server, but every server I've tried.
    Is this normal? Has anyone else noticed this? A few Google and forum searches seem to have not turned up anything.
    Thanks.

    I am slightly skeptical, since it all happened at once, and all the other browser apps seem to work.  Plus, at exactly the same time, I started having app downloading issues.
    My son, who has exact same phone, bought at exactly the same time, but without ios5 / cloud download has no issues at all. 
    This phone version is still being sold, so Apple or whatever caused the issue, should support it still. 
    Any answers on the horizon to fix this? 

  • Default Image Rendition or resize image automatically

    We use the column Rollup Image and have the blob cache enabled to use image rendition.
    Is it possible to use this publishing image column with a default rendition (not full size) so the user has not to choose the rendition (or cannot choose it)?
    Or what would be the best practise to get automatically resized Images? By publishing Image column or better by JavaScript?

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to you want to know about how to use PublishingRollupImage Column to display a default image rendition and how to get automatically resized images.
    Firstly, I suggest you can use the automatically resized in the rollup publishing image column. As the image renditions will choose for different device such as mobile phone, if they display as a default rendition, then it can't be enlarge if user want to
    see more clearly.
    About how to get automatically resized images, you can get image with RenditionID using Jquery.
    Here is a code snippert for your reference:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.microsoft.com/ajax/jquery/jquery-1.7.1.min.js" />
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function() {
    $image = $(".article-content").find("img");
    $image.each(function (i) {
    var imagesrc = $(this).attr("src") + "?RenditionID=5";
    $(this).attr("src",imagesrc);
    </script>

  • Automatic resizing of Window

    I've created a window that let's the user know that a child transaction
    is being started. I add three dots to a TextGraphic widget message
    until the child task is started. However, the window pane automatically
    gets bigger every time the three dots are added (using a TickInterval
    parameter). I tried coding the widget as a size of explicit, but then
    the dots aren't added. I also tried setting the autosize enabled option
    on the Window property to off, but this hasn't seemed to help. I've
    sized the window with more than enough room for the extra dots, but the
    window still gets resized each time. I am using the UpdateFromData
    method to update the window.
    I want the dots to be added with the window pane resizing itself
    everytime.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    I tried coding the widget as a size of explicit <<This should work, but you will have to manually re-size the TextGraphic

  • Safari resizing images, again...

    Some years back, around 2007, I started a thread about Safari automatically resizing images that are larger than the window. That "feature" magically appeared with one Safari update, and quickly disappeared with another update. Well, it's now July 2011 and a new Safari update Version 5.1 (6534.50) has brought this annoying feature back.
    I'm sure there is no way to disable it. I have looked through the preferences, developer and debug options. Why can't Apple make up their minds or at least give us the option to turn this thing on or off!!!!
    Check to see if Safari is resizing with this image: http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/9117/g9img0272sj.jpg
    If it fits within the window and your cursor shows a zoom icon with a plus Safari is resizing. Those of you with high resolution screens may not experience resizing as most images will fit within your window.
    You can also tell if Safari is resizing images by grabbing the bottom right window resize handle and resizing Safari. You'll notice the image will change size to fit within the window. See this pic for an example: http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/3074/screenshot20110722.jpg

    This is under 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, not 10.7 Lion, although I would expect the same behavior with both.

    Firefox will auto resize images, but not text files.
    Safari will auto resize text files, but not images.
    I'd love to turn auto resize for images on and off in Safari.
    Does anyone know how to do this, with a style sheet perhaps?

  • Resizing images within Mail not working in Snow Leopard

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard on both my desktop (iMAC Quad Core) and my MacBook Pro. I'm now experiencing an issue when I attach images within the Mail application.
    In the past, if I attached an image I could resize it by selecting the option at the lower right of the window and it would scale the image accordingly. Now if I select "large" it resizes the image as if I selected small. It's tiny, like 30KB. I tried it on both machines and I get the same thing.
    This was never an issue before upgrading to Snow Leopard. In the past if I selected "large" it would scale my image down to roughly 4X6 300dpi.
    Has anyone else found a fix for this issue?
    Thanks so much!
    Michael

    Hi Terence,
    thanks for your reply.
    But i have now a Problem!
    iPhoto 09 itself can send max. 10 pics in one mail. When i drag & drop more photos to mail as attachement, mail can´t resize photos with greater than 150dpi correctly.
    I have many photos greater than 150 dpi
    With new iPhoto 09 i can not send:
    1. more than 10 photos
    2. without "zipping"
    with mail i can send more than 10 photos at one time but i cant resize these images!
    Allso whe i use this way:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2627690&tstart=0
    The only way to send more than 10 photos with resizing the images is:
    1. export these photos from iphoto to a folder with resizing function
    2. drag or attach these photos to a mail
    3. send mail
    4. delete the created folder with images
    5. empty trash
    iPhoto 8 can send many photos at one time including resizing and display the estimated size of mail (e.g. Megabytes).

  • Resizing images in mail

    Does anyone know how I can resize an image that I have dragged into a mail. I assumed that mail would offer me a drag resize of images but this doesn't seem to be available or is it?
    thanks

    Hi Bob
    I seemed to have hit a nerve.
    Agreed mail is not primarily a graphics application however as I am sure you are aware these days many applications do do jobs that they initially didn't. Your assertion would suggest that web browsers should not display images. After all the first web browsers as I am sure you will remember did not show images as images were not supported in html.
    Why on earth should I have to open a separate application just to reduce the size of an image by around 35% when nearly all other mail applications quite rightly happily allow the user to resize images to whatever size you like.
    Whats the equivalent of a pedant in technology?

  • Need to automate resizing of 1000s of images

    I have approximately 7000 images they are either 400 pixels tall or wide or 450 pixels tall or wide. This are product images and Amazon requires the images be 1000 pixels wide or tall. Is there a way to automate the process so PS recognizes longest side and it height/width and enlarges to 1000 pixels. If so, what is the magic formula?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Yes you would be better off staring with bigger image file.  Then all you need is a single step action that you batch.  The single step in the required action is menu "File>Automate>Fit Image" in the fit images dialog you enter 1000  for both width and height and Click OK.  The 1000 width and height gets recorded into the action step and no dialog is displayed when the action is used.  Once you have that action you batch it on your image file using menu "File>Automate>Batch" in the batch dialog you select which action set you fit image action is in.  You the select your 1000x1000 fit image action in that set.  You select which folder your large image files are in and you set which folder to save the resized images in.
    Batch should be faster then the Image processor for the image processor is a script and it uses the Automate Plug-in script Fit Image to do its resizing,  Batch is a Built in Photoshop Plug-in and should execute faster for it is doing less and is compiled code not an interpreted script

  • Image automatically resizing when moved onto a new tab

    When I'm moving a picture onto a canvas, it is automatically resized to a very small size. I wish only for the picture to move onto the canvas, then still keeping it's size. Afterwards, I wish to resize it myself using ctrl + t but the automatic small size is preventing me from making it better size, and less pixelated.
    Does anyone has a solution to turn off this automatic resizing?

    What resolution is the canvas and what size is the image (in pixels). Go to Image > Image Size...

  • Resize Images in Mails

    Is there any possibility to adjust the size of of the preview of an image attachment?
    I've read that if you insert a image in a mail, you can do so in the bottom right corner but I have nothing there.
    Would be very glad for any help!
    Thanks!

    An image from the web is not definitive, and not what the button is designed for. Typically an image from the web is not an attachment, unless you first download and see that it has an extension of .jpg or other photo format type.
    The "optical size", if I understand your meaning is not needed in Mail with a true photo file attachment -- Mail will fit the image in the window you have for the message.
    The image size button is normally needed to downsize a photo file to what will allow it to send -- for example from 15 MB to say maybe 800 KB. With either size image file, Mail would display it within the limits of the current window.
    It sounds to me that you are talking about images in HTML and wanting to resize those within the text, and not an attachment such as a photo taken with a digital camera.

  • Pasting an image as new layer: Any way to turn off automatic resize?

    If I paste a large image onto a smaller one, CS5 will automatically resize it so that it fits in the frame. You can then manually transform it back into its original size but this is inconvenient for what I'm doing, so I was wondering if there was a way to turn that off so that it keeps the original size (with parts of the layer ending up off-screen). Even better would be if I could just paste without automatically entering free transform, as with the earlier versions of Photoshop.
    Thanks in advance.

    Even better would be if I could just paste without automatically entering free transform, as with the earlier versions of Photoshop.
    You can disable "free transform" in the Preferences/General

  • BUG: Image Not Automatically Resized

    Reported bug to Adobe; am sharing report with RH community.
    OS: Win XP SP 2
    Product: RoboHelp HTML 6
    Output: WebHelp
    ******BUG******
    Concise problem statement:
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Capture a screen; save as GIF on Desktop.
    2. In RH, insert GIF into a topic.
    3. Insert GIF into a second topic.
    4. Recapture the screen from Step 1 (due to product change,
    screen content and size changed). Save capture as GIF to Desktop
    with same name as before (overwriting prior image of same name).
    5. In RH, return to first topic and double-click the image
    in the topic. In the image file path, point to newer image on
    Desktop and click OK. Confirm overwrite wihen prompted.
    Expected results: I expected RH to insert the newer image
    into the second topic and update image size.
    Results: RH did insert the newer image into the second topic
    but RH did not update image size.

    Hello Gunslinger -
    That is not a bug and it is operating correctly. Here is why
    (example)...
    You insert an image of size "640x480" in topic one and RH
    saves the image into the project folder and writes the proper topic
    one HTML such as:
    <p><img src="IMG_1129.jpg"
    x-maintain-ratio=TRUE
    style="border: none;
    width: 640px;
    height: 480px;
    float: none;
    border-style: none;"
    width=640
    height=480
    border=0></p>
    You repeat the steps above on topic two and the HTML is
    writen:
    <p><img src="IMG_1129.jpg"
    x-maintain-ratio=TRUE
    style="border: none;
    width: 640px;
    height: 480px;
    float: none;
    border-style: none;"
    width=640
    height=480
    border=0></p>
    Now you resize the image, return to RH and insert the resized
    image into topic one and the HTML is written:
    <p><img src="IMG_1129.jpg"
    x-maintain-ratio=TRUE
    style="border: none;
    width: 320px;
    height: 240px;
    float: none;
    border-style: none;"
    width=320
    height=240
    border=0></p>
    BUT the SECOND topic still has the previous size specified
    (640x480). Size is written when inserted, not from the image
    property when the project is enerated.
    You need to delete the second topic image and re-insert with
    the new size image, then all will be well.

  • Dynamic Text and Resizing Images Inside

    Hello.
    FYI: I'm following the Flash Blogger tutorials listed on
    http://www.indextwo.net with
    Flash 8.
    I've noticed that everything works wonderfully as far as
    bringing the blog content into the dynamic text field; however, my
    only problem at the moment is while Blogger will automatically
    resize my images, so it doesn't mess up the current template in
    html, but of course, Flash does not (out of the box).
    I need a way to define the width & height of the images in
    the text field to fit inside the dynamic text field they're in.
    As far as I can tell, the tutorials listed on that site use an
    alternate method and don't actually resize them. They just make a
    link to them.
    Lastly, I thought about using CSS in Flash to adjust the img
    size, but from what I gather there are very few items at my
    disposal.
    Does anyone have a solution?
