Hello!

Here's what i'm trying to do :

1 - I like resizing the pics on my computer, then upload them to EE.
I like having EE display all the EXIF detail, but would love to remove this EXIF detail on the picture that is actually displayed (as we do for thumbnails.), this without changing anything else to the picture.

Is it possible ?


2- My second prob is harder to explain, i noticed it's vry hard to explain my peers (family mostly, computer illiterates) how to view a complete gallery, since clicking on a thumbnail will lead them to a picture somewhere in the exhib, and they will miss all the previous pics.
Having them go to the Exhibition browser page is much easyer.
Would it be possible to have an option to do this : clicking on thumbnails on the main page leads to Exhibition browser page.


Thanks !

If I understood this correctly:
Yes, go into Resize Method editor and tick ON "Remove profiles" for all sizes you what to NOT have exif data embedded after resizing. This affects only photos uploaded after the change.

This is a very good point and I agree the link to exhibition must be clearer. You can set the link underline on for the index style you are using by changing in style file (e.g. styles/original.php) line

if ($s_link_underline == "none") $hover = "underline";

to

if ($s_link_underline == "underline") $hover = "none";

Would it be possible to have an option to do this : clicking on thumbnails on the main page leads to Exhibition browser page.

That would confuse many other people. I think it'll be better to add a clear text "CLICK HERE TO ENTER THIS GALLERY" to each index item. I'll put that on my todo list.
