Increase thumbnail image size on Blogger?
Is there any way to increase the thumbnail image size on Blogger with 1.2? Previous versions posted a nice large image to the blogs.
I’m sad

Inappropriate?Hi Weasel
Through LifeCast no there isn't (yet) but that is an interesting point and we take note.
However through Picasaweb there is. Picasaweb has stored your image and if you log into picasaweb (same credentials as you use for your blog) you should be able to find your image in the album named LifeCast. By default I think picasaweb offers 4 sizes and allows you to grab html to access any of the four so choose the size you want and then go to your blog and edit your post substituting the new html for what LifeCast posted.
Hope that helps.
I'll look into what we might do on a future version of LifeCast.
Regards
D.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Hi i've the same problem. The size of the images on my blog is 400px... But in my lifecast preferences i've set it to 800. The source code on my blog shows that picasa first give's a lowres file when you click it it loads the original file. This sucks big time. The app is great... any suggestions for me instead of putting the source code manually! Thanx!!!

Thanks Weasel

Inappropriate?The issue is that Picasaweb limits direct linking to images that are served to a non-Google domain, restricting them to images of a certain size or smaller. ie. you might have registered www.mybog.com and point that to your blogger blog; picasaweb seem the image requests as originating from myblog.com, and doesn't realise it's actually a blogger blog.
In other words, if you have a custom domain for your Blogger blog, you can't directly imbed a full-sized image from Picasaweb (even though Picasaweb is the official way to embed images in a blogger blog); to get around this, we embed the thumbnail in the post instead, and link through to the full size image.
Unfortunately, we have to set this limitation for all Blogger users, whether you have a custom domain name or not. This is because we have no way of telling from your login details if your blogger web site has a custom domain or not.
Previous versions of LifeCast did post the full size image to your Blogger blog, but for people with a custom domain that just didn't work at all. For posting full-sized images directly to a blog page then really we recommend you set up a Tumblr or Wordpress blog, as these don't suffer the same limitations as Blogger.
