You can resize images using the GD library (imagecopyresampled) -- it's the same function used to resize thumbs.

Folderblog doesn't resize main images at all -- to resize a 3, 4, 5, 6 megapixel image would max out the memory limit of many servers, and it's just not worth it to have people uploading a 1 meg 5-megapixel file just to have the script resize it down to a manageable size.

i didnt really want to resize images, i guess my first post was a bit misleading. i don't have GD support anyway.

my images are 750x500 pixels but fb3 draws a border that isnt that big... http://therohan.com/fb.php what i actually want to do is make the border larger.

That's easy to do. In your style.css file, find the line that says

img {border: 1px solid #666; 
 margin: 0px; }

and change the 1px to 10px or 20px or however wide you want the border to be.

okay i'm having trouble explaining myself...

i dont want to change the width of the border....i want to change the size of it so that it encloses my images, if you take a look at http://therohan.com/fb.php you'll get an idea. the grey border doesnt enclose the whole image and overlaps the categories text.

thanks for your help!

Sorry for the confusion. In template_style.css, bump up the .mainimage width and .thumbs width to 800px or so:

.mainimage { 
 text-align: center; 
 width: 700px; 
 background-color: #eee; 
 -moz-border-radius: 10px; 
} 
.thumbs { 
 width: 700px; 
}

Yeah, me too...

To sorta echo rohan's point, is there an 'easy' way to duplicate my slightly customized basic template and slightly customized style.css running under fb v 2.02 to fb 3.0x ?

I've started fiddling with fb 3.0 and hope to have it look and feel the same as my current fb 2.02 install asap.
