Larger thumbnail pics?

Is it possible to enlarge the size of thumbnails? I'd really like to have the thumbnail be about 1/4 the size of the "medium" pics.

Ideally, something like this:

thumbnails: 200x150
small: 640x480
medium: 800x600
large: 1280x1024



I find the current sizes way too small for modern browsers (is anyone out there really still as 640x480 or 800x600 screens? really?) -- my laptop is 1920x1200 now and those images are pretty tiny :D


thanks,

-auslander

    wave.gif Hi auslander welcome to Dgrin and SmugMug!

    It would be great if you'd share your sitename with us deal.gif

    OK so to have larger thumbs, you can choose "Traditional" view style, that gives thumbs of 150px by 150px. That's the biggest "thumbnail" you can have.

    Have a look here as an example:

    www.moonriverphotography.com/popular

    and

    http://www.moonriverphotography.com/gallery/634937 (be sure to choose "traditional" from the drop down menu).

    I hope this helps, holler back here with any questions at all :D

    EDIT: You can also look here:

    for a discussion on an upcoming new viewing style we hope to have.

    Interesting... well, my site is auslander.smugmug.com

    When I select "traditional" I get the slightly larger thumbnails, but only thumbnails and no larger pic on the right.

    That looks great, but I'd still like to see something similar with maybe 1/2 the number of thumbnails (just larger ones)...

    Right. And one click later, you have a larger photo.
    There's not a way to have larger thumbs, *and* a large photo on the page at the same time, with any of the SmugMug viewing styles.
