Thread: Preferred image size for upload, and featured image functionality

Preferred image size for upload, and featured image functionality

So I've figured out through various forum threads that Clipper uses 4 image sizes:
110×90 – coupon list pages and single coupon pages
150×110 – store page
160×120 – featured slider
250×190 – backend edit store page (not exactly sure what this is)

I'm using 1.4 functionality of uploading specific images for stores vs. using the built-in screen-capture capability. I imagine the screen-capture functionality grabs all necessary image sizes. However, for uploading custom images, any one image size won't scale perfectly to the others- they're all different aspect ratios (and for some images, scaling doesn't work that well to begin with).

Is there something I'm missing, or is it on me to find single custom images that will will both scale well and display well in the various sizes?

Also, the only other place to upload an image besides the custom store image- featured images for coupons- doesn't seem like they're used anywhere- it shows up in the coupon list (admin page)- but doesn't show up anywhere else- home page, store page, search results, coupon detail page, category page. Should it appear anywhere? I might just custom code the loop to grab this when one is available.

Thanks!
