Bluga WebThumbs

zostay - March 1, 2008 - 23:29

The Bluga Webthumbs module allows your Drupal site to take advantage of the Bluga Webthumb service for generating thumbnails from URLs automatically. As of this writing, the module is very primitive and merely implements the basics of allowing you to embed a webthumb with a PHP snippet:

<?php
print bluga_webthumb('http://www.example.com', 'large');
?>

You may place a snippet like this in your templates or as PHP filtered code in a node. The module will automatically ask the Bluga WebThumb service to generate the thumbnail using your API key, present a message asking the user to wait while the thumbnail is fetch, and fetch the thumbnail when it becomes available. The thumbnail is cached locally on your Drupal installation. The refresh even happens on the browser without having to reload the page.

Thanks to Konigi.com for sponsoring the 6.x-1.0 release of Bluga WebThumbs for Drupal.

This module does not work with PHP4.

This module is maintained by Qubling Software.
