After uploading about 45 images all at one time I noticed that not all the images are showing on the front end.
The images are between 280kb and 1.3MB
I also tried to upload each image separately and checking the front end after uploads.
I also tested this on a different web site with EventGallery version 3.4.0 installed. Got same issue.
I cleared the cashe and synced database. (This just made the order of what images fail to show change.

On the front end every time you refresh the visible images change.

You can see it at http://www.pacifictreefrog.net/

The issue is visible in every view. Ajax,grid, ect...

Thank You

If you see randomly missing images your server might be the cause for this. Some servers can't handle multiple PHP requests because of resource restrictions and deliver HTTP 500 responses. Can you check the error log please?
I just had a look at your site and did not encounter any issue. But I also did a quick jMeter test with 10 users calling your homepage 100 times. I've got some error pages during this test.

Thank You for the quick response.

I noticed when I got up this morning it was working fine at the link I had posted.

The second site I had it tested on was on same server and it still has the issue. I will need to look into what the issue might be. It could be I am maxed on resources. Its a VPS server and I will test it on a 2nd shared server that I have next.

I did install it on a third server I have at a different host. I uploaded 72 images at once ranging from 500-1000kb with no issues at all.

So its not your component.

Is there a way to set the light box image size? I searched the forum and the manual but did not see much info.

One other thing I noticed is the copyright EXIF data is stripped from the images when downloaded.
I did this with the original photos function on and off. I believe the EXIF data should travel with the photo?

Thank You for the help

Keep in mind you can also use Google Picasa to deliver your images, with version 3.5 even flickr.
The lightbox always deliver the largest thumbnail. This is by default 1440px. Of cause this depends on your image sizes. What do you want to change?
The EXIF-Data should be at least available in the original files since they are delivered unchanged.

I think the lightbox will be fine. I had uploaded some scanned photo album pages and they seem a little bit small. I will probably need to crop the images out to get them more visible.

I will look into Picasa.

It looks like all the EXIF data is stripped even from the originals. I have only tested with the download button in the lightbox.

The lightbox should show images in the original image format.

If you use the configuration option "use original files" you'll get exactly the file from your harddrive. So if you had exif information in there, you'll get it in the downloaded file too.
