    Hello

    This post because I can notice image quality degradation with Gallery Extra.
    I uploaded a PNG 24 bit RGB image and the Gallery image is not the original uploaded image but a PNG Grayscale 8bits.




    Left: uploaded image file, computer side
    Right: uploaded image file, Gallery side

    Is there a way to manage or prevent Gallery to transform uploaded images?

    NB : As this point there is no deliberate transformation with phpThumb although I suppose Gallery do a transformation in background to optimize uploaded files, the comparison is between original file and Gallery image served as "original file" [ed. note: johnxx last edited this post 11 years, 8 months ago.]

      Are you talking about thumbnail, generated images or the full files?

      [[+image_absolute]] will give the path to the uploaded image. [[+image]] will give the generated image run through phpthumb based on the default properties set, and [[+thumbnail]] to the thumbnail.

      See the docs here: http://rtfm.modx.com/extras/revo/gallery/gallery.gallery/gallery.gallery.thumbtpl
