is there anyway to view larger boxarts on site?

(sorry didnt want to make a new thread about boxarts)

(thanks to pichu for teaching me this trick)

Click on view image, it'll show you a small boxart. Go to the address bar and add "full_" to the address, so it looks, for example

http://www.vgchartz.com/games/boxart/full_6294434AmericaFrontccc.jpg

instead of

http://www.vgchartz.com/games/boxart/6294434AmericaFrontccc.jpg

 

For some reason it doesn't work with every boxart

 

It doesn't work for every boxart because the original functionality used to ALWAYS compress the images down during upload. I changed it to store the 'full' size version as well as a compressed size.

Don't worry, there is functionality in 2.0 that will allow you to see full size boxarts without having to manually type in the address...

...but there is LOTS of cleanup to do for all of those boxarts that were submitted before I made the change.

 

 

You're right, it's not like we had to resubmit all the boxarts that were uploaded during 2 months. Cleaning up the boxarts seems like an impossible task

Nah, good job, I'm glad there's the option, that way I can check better what does the boxart I'm accepting say. If there's an easier option, the better
