how does the image field work to echo thumbnail was created by bobthebob01

Hi,

I have an image field and it's working great. Excepted that it always output the medium thumbnail size when i use:

Code:

<?php foreach ($this->item->positions['ProfilePicture'] as $field) : ?>
<?php echo $field->display; ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>

How can echo the large thumbnail size image. I know i could bypass it by using the same width and height for the large and medium thumbnail.
But it would defy the purpose to have such choice/option.
And there might be times where having 2 or 3 different size of the same image can be useful depending on page view.

thanks

The small thumbnail is used in category view,
the medium thumbnail is used in the item view and
the large thumbnail is displayed in the pop-up.

The attached file will make 2 options appear in the properties of the image field, to select the size {small,medium,big} of thumbnails displayed
1. in item view,
2. in category view and

If you choose big no popup will be added.

But you cannot (with this modification) select which thumbnail size to output at the template.
But in general you can do it by adding extra display variable to the field.
