<h1>Using ImageCache and ImageCrop for my Portfolio</h1>
|
||
|
||
<p class="posted text-light">28th April 2010</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Whilst working on my own portfolio/testimonial website, I decided to have a portfolio page displaying the name of each site and a thumbnail image. For this Blog post, I'll be using a site called <a href="http://popcornstrips.com">Popcorn Strips</a> which I built for a friend earlier this year as an example.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>I created a content type called 'Project' with a CCK ImageField called 'Screenshot'. I created a project called <a href="http://popcornstrips.com">Popcorn Strips</a>, used the <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/1146">ScreenGrab</a> add-on for Mozilla Firefox to take a screenshot of the website, and uploaded it to the project node.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>I created a View to display the published projects, and an ImageCache
|
||
preset to create the thumbnail image by scaling and cropping the image
|
||
to a size of 200x100 pixels.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Although, this automatically focused the crop on the centre of the image, whereas I wanted to crop from the top and left of the image - showing the site's logo and header.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>I installed the <a href="http://drupal.org/project/imagecrop">ImageCrop</a> module, which add a jQuery crop function to the standard ImageCache presents. I removed the original Scale and Crop action and replaced it with a Scale action with a width of 200px.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>I then added a new 'Javascript crop' action with the following settings:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Width: 200px</li>
|
||
<li>Height: 100px</li>
|
||
<li>xoffset: Left</li>
|
||
<li>yoffset: Top</li>
|
||
</ul>
