[support] image module - too small attached pictures

[Cyberswat]

The image cache preset that you defined will not show up as a selection on
the node edit form.   What it enabled is the ability for you to theme the
attached image to the dimensions you created in your imagecache preset.  On
the tutorial at http://drupal.org/node/134086 this is addressed under the
heading "Create a Module" but I'll summarize here.  The key to invoking the
images at your preset sizes is with this line:

theme('imagecache', 'thumbnail', $node->field_thumbnail[0]['filepath'])

In this example,  your invoking imagecache and telling it to use the
predefined preset 'thumbnail' (your name is whatever you typed in when
making your preset) ... you are then telling it to use the image whose
server path is stored in $node->field_thumbnail[0]['filepath'].  Simply
using echo or print on the value returned from the above code will print an
image according to the preset.

In that tutorial a module was created that pulled out a selection of blog
teasers and attached a thumbnail to them in a teaser list.  The way the
module was written provides the image as a link you can click on to be
directed to the view of the node.

Hope that helps.
