Hy germi,

One more for you mate.

The featured band module....when i enable the module, it doesn't show up the picture. Obviously because I havent put up a picture for the artist name.

Is there any way I can get a picture of the band which has been embedded in the description of the band to show up in the module?
For the featured/random albums, there is an image, but nothing for the featured band. Can anything be done for that?

Thanks in advance.

    hello

    at this moment there's no option for that. even if you have a logo-image fo rthe artist name, it doesn't show up in this module. I'll add more parameter options in next releases, but at this time, I'm afraid there's not much you can do (unless you make the modification yourself, adding some PHP code to the module... but I think you once said that you're not familiar to PHP)

    anyway, taking an image embedded into artist's review wouldn't be a good solution (and would be kinda hard to implement), because the image would be some html the module would have to strip.. :S

    so, what can you do? wait for future version. I'm working on add a new field on the artist, "Image", to be able to put bands picture(s). But I don't know when will this be ready... maybe on 1.0.3, maybe on 1.0.4...

    I hope you can wait a bit :)

    Alright man. No issues.

    Actually yeah, a field for 'artist image' will be super. And if it kinda appears in the same place as where we all have the picture put up which is right in the middle of the page. It looks brilliant there.

    And let the original dimension of the picture come up as different people would want to have a different sizes. So they can resize the picture before uploading.

    yes, the image won't be resized. actually, the album's image is not resized, but I added a "max-width" property to the CSS to avoid have extra-large images. but this can be removed in a second and images (for albums) will be displayed exactly the size they are

    I don't know if you knew that ;) but I tell you in the case you didn't
