Sun, 23 Nov 2008 20:31:28 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: Tim W http://wordpresshelp.org/2008/02/11/using-mimbo-theme/#comment-14 Tim W Fri, 02 May 2008 20:35:42 +0000 http://wordpresshelp.org/?p=15#comment-14 Great article on a great theme. I loved the Image Manager plugin which I guess has been somewhat superseded now we have the new Media Gallery (although still no way to file images neatly into folders) If all that image resizing and custom field tagging is spoiling your enjoyment of MIMBO then you should check out the VIVA THUMBS plugin from Mediatricks. It takes the first image you upload (using WP Add Media - not Image Manager) and automatically thumbnails it on the fly to any size your theme needs. It can also display a defautl category linked image if there is no image uploaded with a post. The demo site has a fully working version you can login and test: http://www.mediatricks.biz/demo Viva Thumbs makes Mimbo, Revolution, Unstandard and all the new 'picture perfect' themes a snap to administer.
