Theme Preview Images for the ThemeSwitcher? and Installer


Zikula .8x features in integrated theme switching tool that presents site users with a preview of the available themes on the site and allows the user to select which theme they would like to view the site in. Depending on the view chosen - either the theme switcher block or module - one of two images will be used to display the preview of the theme. For the theme to be available under the theme switcher both images should be present.

The three images are
  • preview_large.png; image size 600px x 450px.
  • preview_medium.png; image size 200px x 150px.
  • preview_small.png; image size 140px x 105px.

The medium image is used in the module view and available from 'Your Account'. The small image is used in the block view. The large image is, as yet, unused but will be utilized to create a Zikula theme gallery so theme authors are encouraged to generate this image

Additionally any themes providing the medium preview image will also be available to be selected as the default theme when installing Zikula.
