Why are there different image sizes?
When you upload an image to PBase, three versions of the image (other than the original you uploaded) are automatically generated - small, medium and large.
The small is no larger than 160 pixels on either side, the medium no larger than 400 pixels, and the large is no larger than 800 pixels.
PBase will only generate sizes that are smaller than your original. So, if your original is smaller than 800 pixels on both sides, no large will be generated.
When viewing the image, if different size files exist for the same image, you will have your choice of sizes. This is useful if you have a slow internet connection and want to view a smaller size, or if you want greater detail and want to view a larger size.
Once you choose a size, PBase will make that your default viewing size on that computer until you choose a different size.
The initial default viewing size for everyone is large.

Copies of a Gallery
-
- When you copy a gallery or an image to another gallery, that gallery or image will now appear in both the original gallery and the gallery to which you copied it.
Don't worry, it's really the same photo displayed in two different places; you are not using twice as much disk space.
-
- For Images If the image lives in more than one gallery, only the image in the current gallery will be deleted. For Galleries If you copy a gallery to a different parent gallery, there is still only one gallery, just two paths to it. So, any changes you make will show up in both places. Let's say you have gallery C, which has two paths to reach it - one from gallery A and one from gallery B. You want to remove C from B: Edit gallery B. Select the checkbox by the listing for gallery C.... (more)
-
- It is more like there are two paths, or ways to view the image, so you are not using twice as much disk space.
-
- Because there is actually just one image with more than one path to get to it, when you make a change to the original, that change is also applied to the copy, and vice versa.
