I've submitted a patch to the inline.module, and the question was raised as to whether others find the proposed feature useful. So I'm asking for your comments.

http://drupal.org/node/61547

The patch provides support for in-lining large images, but resized so as not to break your theme. Currently, if you only want images under 300x300, for instance, to be displayed inline, any images that are larger are just hyperlinked, and not displayed in-line at all. The patch allows the option of placing oversized images inline, but uses CSS to shrink them on the page. Clicking an image links to the full-size version.

It could be useful in certain cases. I guess that using CSS to resize the images may result in some degradation though.

Actually that is exactly what I am looking for. I have tons of problem trying to apply the patch though. Would really be grateful if you could post the patched inline module for 5.7.

Thanks

I love the idea of linking bigger images... but what about the ability to make/crop your own thumbnail images? Then if it could work with lightbox2... man, that would be super-excellent-fantastico!
