πŸ’‘ What:
Optimized the album gallery to load smaller thumbnail images (=s400) in the grid view while preserving the high-resolution images (=s1200) for the lightbox view.

🎯 Why:
Previously, the code was forcing all images to load at =s1200 (1200 pixels wide) even for the small grid thumbnails. This caused unnecessary bandwidth usage and slower load times. Using =s400 for thumbnails significantly reduces the data transfer size for the initial view.

πŸ“Š Measured Improvement:
Verified using a Playwright script that intercepts the image URLs.

  • Before: Grid images loaded with src containing =s1200.
  • After: Grid images load with src containing =s400.
  • Lightbox: Clicking an image still opens the lightbox with the full =s1200 resolution, ensuring quality is preserved where it matters.

Pull request overview

This PR optimizes the album gallery by loading smaller thumbnail images in the grid view while preserving high-resolution images for the lightbox view. The change reduces initial bandwidth usage by using =s400 for grid thumbnails instead of =s1200, while maintaining the full-resolution =s1200 images for the lightbox.

Changes:

  • Modified thumbnail URL generation to use =s400 for grid display and =s1200 for lightbox display
  • Added a server.log file (likely unintentional)
