Hi!
I think this was possible wit D5 but I'm not seeing it in D6.

I've created 2 presets on my site, thumbs and big. Would like to display thumbs and link them to the big image but can only link to node or image, and using the (original) image is not an option because I need to display watermarked images.

Thanks!
Ricardo

Imagecache + imagefield lets you use any preset in any context.
imagecache+image.module+imagecache_image.module (in CVS?) allows you to use imagecache presets in the place of normal derivatives.

One of those will probably be your answer.

That's my set up. In the case that's relevant it's:
- ImageField 6.x-3.x-dev
- CCK 6.x-2.1

But these are my only options in the Display Fields page of my Content Type:
Generic files
big image
big image linked to node
big image linked to image
big file path
big URL
thumb image
thumb image linked to node
thumb image linked to image
thumb file path
thumb URL
Image
Image linked to node
Image linked to file
Path to file
URL to file
Hidden

Any idea what might be wrong?

Hm, I see.
You can link to node and have the node display the watermarked version...
but to link directly to the raw watermarked version you'd have to add three lines into your theme somewhere... Sorry, I can't recall what the syntax is.

Thanks anyway dman!
I ended up solving my problem in an unexpected way. After installing lightbox 2 I noticed it allows for any-to-any types of links.

Still, it would be interesting to have this on ImageCache.

subscribing.
is this feature already implemented in HEAD? if not, I would ask to reopen this issue.
But I do understand this would explode the number of options in the visualization.
Perhaps just adding a default preset for a "preset linked to default preset" would be enough.

thanks for this very nice module.

Please reopen if this is still an issue with ImageCache 6.x-2.0-rc1.
