I’m working on an xml driven flash website where clients can modify an xml file directly to change the appearance of the site (eventually i’ll make a flash/php dashboard GUI). The site will have listings each with a photo.
I’m trying to find a way around having the clients have to crop images to thumbnail and enlarged view size themselves. In other words the images would be displayed scaled to fit within a movie clip. Does anyone know if this is even possible? It seems that an image is an image at its pixel dimensions and there’s no real way around that…
I guess my target demographic is pretty tech savvy (relatively) and could probably crop images with a basic image editor… it would be nice to find them some kind of batch processor or something. Although at the most clients will probably only add five or ten listings a month or so. if anyone has any insight into this dilemma that would be appreciated!
