Custom Size for Highlight url in GetTree?

blackgold9

I can retrive a thumbURL or smallURL for an albums highlight image via the extras parameter in getTree.
Is it possible to retrieve a url for a custom size ? (250x250 for example)

Thanks,
Stephen

You can make any url a custom size by changing the parameters in the url. I don't remember them off the top of my head now that the url format has changed, but it's a matter of replacing the S/M/L with a size in pixels.

The old format was:

from an original url of:

http://redbaronphoto.huntsvillecarscene.com/photos/1061665698_nps7N-M.jpg

In this example a 250x250 would be:

The problem i have with that method is that in the past I've run into oddities like files ending with Th-1.jpg, and that's tripped up my modification code. Being able to specify the size upfront guarantees i get what i need.

How did that trip up your code? There's just the Th that needs to be replaced with the size. Apparently that's what I've been doing, like in this one:

http://newpics.huntsvillecarscene.com/photos/1153352484_aB7Ff-166x1000-1.jpg

with a normal size url being

http://newpics.huntsvillecarscene.com/photos/1153352484_aB7Ff-M-1.jpg

I'm sure the new format will work too.

If you don't mind sharing that part of your code, I'll help however I can.

My issue hasn't been the code doesn't work, but rather that the new url does not load an actual image (when ending with M-1.jpg for instance);

Hmmm...do you have an example.
