Do you mean the background box which holds the images? That's set per skin.
You may look into your skin.css, in
jcarousel_block\jcarousel\skins\ie7 or \jcarousel_block\jcarousel\skins\tango .
You can also make your own skin.

lizbethalml,

I'm sorry i didnt reply earlier.

Only today i found some time to test this and you're right, it cant be changed on the skin.css file, as explained on the documentation page created by me.

Jcarousel_block is just using Imagefield to generate the thumbs.
But the Imagefield module does not provide an easy way to change the thumbnail settings, yet.

What you can do is:

Go to your imagefield module folder, open imagefield_file.inc on your text Editor and search for the following and change according to your needs:

  $info = image_get_info($source);
  $size = explode('x', variable_get('imagefield_thumb_size', '100x100'));

As you can see 100x100 is the default size for thumbnails, I made a very quick test and changed those numbers and it worked on Jcarousel_block.

So that might be all you have to do but if you're feeling extra adventurous you can try the patches provided in these threads:

Hi !

I'm not very aware of code, but I use jCarousel on my website (using Wordpress : www.passagetomumbai.com) and I would like to change the size of the jCarousel block (not the size of the images), just the height.

Could you please help me, I don't know what to modify and where !

Thanks a lot !
