On my details page I want one image to be thumbnailed a little larger then the rest and in a different location. Little unsure how to do this due to the images already being thumbnailed to a set size.
Also what is the code to link to the original images of the thumbnailed version?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Rohwer,
You can do what you want to very easily.
You can set up up to 5 separate image sizes (4 thumbnails and the original) in the input validation area when you create or modify your upload field.
Don't forget to click on recreate and then save if you add or change the amount of thumbs or their sizes. Thumbs are normally only created when you upload the original images
They get accesses by referencing the thumbUrlPath, thumbWidth, thumbHeight
as
thumbUrlPath2, thumbWidth2, thumbHeight2
or 3 or 4.
The link to the original image would be (used inside your foreach loop):
If you wanted the thumbnail to be clickable, you could use this instead:
There's a lot of this kind of information in my CMSB Cookbook http://www.thecmsbcookbook.com
Hope that helped.

Appreciate the help and you were dead on! Exactly what I wanted. Didn't even notice the advanced thumbnail options available. Need to check my eyesight.
And i did need the thumbnail clickable. Working on getting it working with lightbox now which shouldn't be too hard.
Will be purchasing your cookbook mainly due to the fact that you help everybody on here. More importantly me :)
Thanks again!
