Overview

The Basic Image module adds the ability to create Basic Image collections, which are capable of displaying GIF, PNG and JPG/JPEG files. Users can view a smaller version of the image on the object's View tab, or click the image to view it full-size. It also allows for creation of a thumbnail image datastream during the ingest process.
