What is the difference between mac_pic_size & max_big_image & keep_big_image?

Hi Guys,

Just wondered if you could clear up some confusion.

I only have max_pic_size and keep_big_image=`true` in my callout but I wondered did I need to specify max_big_image too and what is the difference between the big image and the normal image. I just have thumbnails and then they open to the original image. Is this image the big image or the normal image?

Thanks a lot.

big image is the image that is opened in default display type from the normal picture.. eg. thumbnail -> normal image -> big image.

In MaxiGallery templates, you can access the big image by using "big_" prefix for the filename placeholder.

In your site, you are using embedded display mode, so you are never seeing the big images.. just thumbnails and normal images.

You could for example add a link to the lightbox for users to download the big image.
