Forum:Current images issues

Like many of you noticed and reported, it's been a few days that the galleries are completely broken, among other things. Here's what I noticed so far:


 * PNG transparency does not work anymore in galleries (it's all blue instead).
 * In galleries again, a random height size has been chosen, which makes the galleries look very messy. For my wiki I chose 140px as both height and width, and that looked pretty good. Now that doesn't work anymore and that's a shame. If heights has been disable, I really wonder why, since I really need it.
 * Furthermore, most jpg thumbnails have been refreshed with a very high JPG compression, while it was perfect before. I really wonder why. If that to make more space on the servers, I think a better comprise between quality and size should be chosen.
 * Old issues with the SVGs have also surfaced, with thumbnails having one pixel difference in height or width, resulting in blurry images in most browsers.

FYI, I'm not complaining, I'm just listing the issues I have noticed. I hope it can help the staff in fixing issues, whatever plans they currently have. And sorry for any possible redundancy from my part. Klow 17:00, July 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * You need to put this information in a comment for the gallery blog post, or use Special:Contact to let the staff know. They don't really read these forums. -- LordTBT Talk! 17:08, July 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've contacted Wikia staff via Special:Contact regarding degraded JPG thumbnails earlier (see corresponding thread). Looks like the problem is widespread after all. - ZS 18:22, July 18, 2010 (UTC)
