Image file compression
Installation and Configuration
Strumelia:
Paul, will this new tool retroactively go through all the images already on my JR site that were imported from an older ning archive? Or will it only work for new images added by users after the tool is working?
Will it be able to work when we do my 'go live' archive/import soon?
paul:Coincidentally enough I've just built a tool to do this for another ex Ningster and it will be in the next release of the jrImage module.
Basically you set the maximum image width or height and the module and it'll run though all the module images reducing their size appropriately. Disk usage savings can be very significant.

It will go though all images on your site, at any time that you implement the tool so yes, it can be run after you have imported from Ning.
It also has a 'Dry Run' option that will reprort potential savings without actually doing the reduction.
