Hi, sajwal. Here’s a screen shot of my eehowto uploads folder.. see if that helps.

Thanks for the help…
I got it done using the low_replace plugin of changing the original image’s path in my href but i was still wondering for a tag or syntax to pull the thumbnail directly
Eg. : {image} is for the original image ... is there anything like
{thumb} or {thumb_image} for a thumbnail of the original image ?
but for the meanwhile got it resolved.

Hi, sajwal. No, there’s nothing like that built in.. but you could always make that a Feature Request.
What I do instead is use one of the available image resizing plugins to make a thumbnail for me. This way I get better control of the dimensions of the file. Check on Devot-ee.com for possible solutions. Does that help?
