For people with the same idea: Masonry is the plugin I'm using. Works with plain javascript or with JQuery

I think, you can use the placeholder image_absolute in the thumbTpl like:

This is want to achieve

I want to make a page filled with images.
All the images keep there original size
The sizes of the images may vary
I will the Masonary javascript plugin to make all the images nicely fill the page

So I thought to use Gallery to make it manageable for the users and to create the page.

PS: Gallery is not a must, it is the gallery manager I have used before

what Susan is talking about, is: use just the placeholder to the fullsize-image in your image-tpl-chunk.

Otherwise we would need more specific information, what you mean with a 'gallery with fullsize images'

Hi Sottwell,

thanks for the reply.

Maybe I don't understand the benefit of your solution, but for me it doesn't make sense. If I do so, why would I use Gallery, I can put all the images in the content editor as well.

Just link directly to the images, don't use pthumb or any other thumbnail generators.
