Hi Tuan,
The re-sizing is already an awesome improvement for the extension. What would be another really awesome improvement would be firstly a thumbnail preview and secondly a crop function that allows the cropping of the event photo to the right size.
EG> Facebook will give you a good sized image in its shared posts if the image is 484 x 424 px wide. However, users cannot understand that and upload pretty much any size... Would it be possibe to let the component automatically resize and crop to the right dimensions?

It would make life a LOT easier then (totally best would be to have a function like in FB where you can see what parts the website will crop.

Hi Tim

To be honest, I don't know how the crop function works (I am bad at image processing), so I don't think I could implement it in the future

I guess we will have to wait for Joomla 3.7.0 released first. There is a feature in the roadmap which implements resize, crop images... in the new media manager, and we can then borrow some code from there into Events Booking

For now, I will focus working on other features first
