Test the new Intelli-Crop Upgrade
April 29, 2008
Viva thumbs now has even more intelligent cropping. The challenge when auto cropping an image is that a computer doesn’t have the eye of the photographer so doesn’t know what is important in the picture. Every image can have a different orientation too which makes making an automatic crop even more of a challenge.
Viva Thumbs now includes a more accurate Intelli-Crop algorithm to help crop the key content of your image. This is based on the fact that usually a photgrapher frames the key content in the centre of the image - but Viva also applies this logic to different style and shape crops from any image orientation.

Viva Makes It EASY!!!
April 6, 2008
I write my post. It can be anything you like…. Then, I want to add an image as a thumbnail…. I don’t have to think about custom fields…. I simply use the built in WP upload facility to add an image….. DONE…. and yes - I am DONE!
I PUBLISH my post and VIVA does all the work for me. It resizes and crops my thumbnails from the source file, saves them to a cache for re-display…. Leaving me to get on with writing the next blog post!
Beautiful blogging has never been this easy!
Works a treat in Revolution themes but can be used in ANY theme, anywhere, anyway!
Viva la Revolution - The future is thumbnails on the fly!
Viva Loves Quality Images
April 6, 2008
When attaching an image to a post, aim for an original image that is at least 640 x 480 pixels - that way your thumbnails will be created with good resolution.
Viva resizes and crops on the fly then saves a copy of the new thumbnails to a cache to save server power on the next display.
You can set the jpg compression settings for thumbnail creation - this demo site is using 75% compression…
