    Greetings,

    I just started using maxigallery las night and have a question. Is it possible to query an image and resize it? I am using Ditto to display recent blogs and would like to include 1 picture from that blog in the description. I can’t figure out how to display a smaller size instead of fullsize. Any suggestions? Also is it a common issue to attempt to use lightboxv2 and not be able to see any images? The image background pops up over the screen but fails to load the picture. This is secondary, what I’d really like to fix is the resizing problem with the query. Thanks for any help you all can give me.
      I twitch because I care....and drink too much coffee.

      You can use in your Ditto query the thumbnail image from maxigallery. If you need some other size than what the thumbnail is, you need to use phx:phpThumb to resize the image. In this thread you can find more information about the picture resizing.

      For the lightbox problem, it’s most probably a CSS collision with your site CSS and lightbox CSS. To figure it out, I would suggest you to comment stuff out from your site CSS and then include it back one block at a time to see where it breaks.
