    My call is right out of the wiki for v0.5;
    [!MaxiGallery? &display=`embedded` &embedtype=`slidebox` &pics_in_a_row=`3` &max_thumb_size=`110` &max_big_size=`0` !]

    The thumbs are bigger than the call - 130px by 86px not a max of 110px and the big pix are 450 X 300. The pictures they are derived from are 1800 X 1200 px and I thought with the call of &max_big_size=`0` they would either be 1200px or the actual size. Why am I getting these results?
    Thanks,
    HalD

      max_big_size is the 3rd size of the picture (that in default display mode is linked to from normal picture). If you want the normal pictures to be unchanged, use max_pic_size=`0`. The thumbnails should be max 110px tall or wide, are you sure that you have made that parameter to the snippet call before the pictures were uploaded? if not, delete the pics and upload again.

        Doze; I wish I could say I see where max_big_size is third in priority for the picture size - but It is not clear to me. Which parameters are in the order of size control for the picture (first,second third)?
        And could you explain the 3 display types for me? What do you get for ’normal’? Embedded - embedded in what? The terms are confusing since I can’t find examples of what each look like.
        Thanks,

          Normally maxigallery shows thumbnail and the normal larger picture, eg. max_thumb_size and max_pic_size.

          If &keep_bigimg=`1` maxigallery also keeps a bigger version of the image, for example if you want to offer a bigger downloadable version of the image and show smaller ones in your page. The size of the bigger image is then configured in max_big_size.

            Doze; Thanks for the help. I’m beginning to get a handle on MaxiGallery.
