vb.org Archive - View Single Post - A question about image thumbnails/previews

Sorry, but that's definitely not what I'm talking about. The image is being resized, yes, but it's only via the code. There are no copies of the image on the site at the dimensions showing up after the resize.

I'll try to explain again how Wordpress did it. If you uploaded an image it saved a copy of the original, and a thumbnail for all images. If the image was larger than your max size then it also saved intermediate copy of the file, processed server side and with an appended filename, like ImageName_600x400.jpg. You could choose which image you inserted into a post, and whether or not you wanted the users to be able to click on the image and link it to the original, larger image.
