Hello,

I think It's not a good idea to change the default behaviour:

1/ If the ScaleImageTag doesn't allow to scale up an image, it must be renamed to ScaleDownImageTag 2/ I'm relying on this behaviour for one of my website. Some pages require images with a fixed dimension for esthetic reasons. When contributors upload images with smaller dimension, the scale up behaviour generally does the trick. I'm sure that there must be other Magnolia users that uses the scale up behaviour and maybe without noticing it.

Personally, my biggest issue with the ScaleImageTag is that it generally generates image with bigger size. I think it is caused by the use of PNG format and the lack of attributes that let the users specify the quality or the compression level.

Hi All,

We're modifying the scale image tag so it does not attempt to expand images beyond their original dimensions. I will submit this change to be incorporated into a future release but thought I should ask if anyone does not want this behavior? We never want images made bigger than their original dimensions but if someone does want it let me know now so I can make it an option in the patch I submit.

Tom
