When the thumbalizr creates the screenshot the result (naturally) looks like this:<br /> <a href="http://www.thumbalizr.com/api/?url=http://www.civilization.ca/media/docs/images/60s06b.jpg&#38;width=120" rel="nofollow">http://www.thumbalizr.com/api/?url=http://www.civilization.ca/media/docs/images/60s06b.jpg&#38;width=120</a></p> <p>So, my request is this. Could the service recognize an image link and just make a resize instead of a screenshot? Possibly even with the option of "white borders, crop or stretch" in the API. </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=10&page#post-30 Mon, 25 Feb 2008 07:19:07 +0000 admin 30@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>Hi Omberton,</p> <p>beta is coming soon.

Within beta phase, we'll change to API key which allows us to provide individual functions. If you want, you can move to beta before we release it to public. I'll keep you updated.</p> <p>Regards<br /> Alex </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=10&page#post-22 Fri, 15 Feb 2008 21:42:00 +0000 oemberton 22@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>I second that.</p> <p>Ideal service from my perspective would be:</p> <p>* No "powered by" label<br /> * A way of querying the state of a thumbnail (via XML/JSON whatever) so that we knew when the thumbnail was taken, if it was taken. This way we could have our own message instead of your "image queued", and can add our own caption ("screenshot taken on ...")<br /> * Remote call to 'force' a retake of thumbnail (just add to the queue)<br /> * (Ideal) Your license to allow us to download screenshots for our own image processing server-side (not fussed about caching, but we'd like to superimpose, do image recognition etc). Most of these services only allow you to pass straight to the client.</p> <p>We've looked around and not found much that can even do the decent sized screenshots like Thumbalizr, but the "powered by" is a killer for us in a commercial product. </p> <p>Sort this out and we'd have a lot of business for you (email me if you like). </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=10&page#post-21 Fri, 15 Feb 2008 14:28:57 +0000 robvolk 21@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>Why don't you offer a paid version of your service? I think many people would pay for this if the screen generation queue time was cut down significantly (maybe a few seconds) and the "powered by..." label was removed. Offer it for a penny for every N screen grabs. </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=9&page#post-20 Thu, 31 Jan 2008 13:57:04 +0000 admin 20@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>there will be more api features soon - we're working on the beta of thumbalizr.<br /> Currently, it looks like we're finished in the end of Feb.</p> <p>Best Regards<br /> Alex </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=9&page#post-19 Thu, 31 Jan 2008 00:39:30 +0000 smekis 19@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>oops.

Most sites I use thmbalizr on has a static width of about 800px, and that makes the preview mostly background. A "...&#38;sps=800" where you can choose a screen port width between 500 and current (1200?).</p> <p>* I would also like for a boolean option to put the thmbalizr logo at the top of the image instead of the bottom (now that is has to be there)</p> <p>I have made a small greasemonkey script using your sevice to show thumbnails of my del.icio.us bookmarks! It will soon be published <a href="http://www.johanronstrom.se/projekt/">here</a>. </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=7&page#post-17 Fri, 25 Jan 2008 12:30:30 +0000 admin 17@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>we've enhanced the header a little bit. Now expiration is +1 day<br /> We'll also provide enhanced header information soon. E.g. </p> <p>X-Thumbalizr-Generated: Sun, 20 Jan 2008 19:00:26 GMT<br /> X-Thumbalizr-Status: OK</p> <p>Regards<br /> Alex </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=8&page#post-16 Fri, 25 Jan 2008 12:25:50 +0000 admin 16@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>We'll have different output formats soon. Of course the focus is to provide .png </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=8&page#post-15 Sun, 20 Jan 2008 18:07:45 +0000 user 15@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>After a long search, I find your service to be the only one that is doing what I want, I have been using firefox screengrab! extension, but being an opera user, I don't really want the need to have firefox installed, and run it just for that.</p> <p>However, I do not feel your service is still a good replacement, for the simple fact that the output image format is in .jpg, a crappy quality .jpg image, wich for me (and others I know of) is not really an option, as a good quality picture is needed, so I would recommend an option (or even the default) to have the images in .png format, because quality can always be reduced if needed, but it cannot really be enhanced when it is that bad. </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=7&page#post-14 Sat, 29 Dec 2007 16:21:04 +0000 coret 14@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>Why doesn't thumbalizr output http headers telling browsers they can cache the image for, say, 1 month?

And in if the temp thumb changes anyway, you only have to recalculate the CRC. The CRC is calculated by using the first 1024 bytes of the file.</p> <p>Thanks for this great service, keep up to good work ! </p> http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/topic.php?id=5&page#post-10 Mon, 29 Oct 2007 15:01:13 +0000 steve 10@http://www.i-ssential.de/thumbalizr-forum/ <p>Hi, it would be nice to be able to specify that the thumbnail should be re-created even if it already exists.
