One major pain point in the old blog is that images don't scale/crop in elegant ways, leading to awkward display like https://ipfsblog-vuepress.netlify.app/_099-identity-ipfs-ion/. Would prefer not to crop automatically so we don't see things like that example, but this probably means two things:

  • Keep the same aspect ratio for the card and for the hero image
  • Allow the user to reposition/crop the photo to fit that aspect ratio at the time of upload from within the Forestry form interface

Any possibility of using a tool like https://foliotek.github.io/Croppie/ in a new tab, end result being either to

  • Save resulting image to the user's desktop
  • Save resulting image to the Forestry image directory for the user to grab directly in the Forestry UI (better)

One nice aspect of this particular tool is it can specify image dimensions so the user doesn't have to remember them (or even the aspect ratio).
