MG 2.1 images not resizing?

thanks for that chris......now just wondering how to resize the uploaded images we missed....how can we do that?
i was going to run a simple imagemagick command but then i noticed they are converted to this .data extension so not sure that would even work..

resized them manually on the server level....
came back to test just now tho.....gallery did not resize uploaded images i tried
i triple checked the settings to be sure the height and width restrictions were there....
it is an admin acct....but the permission is set, that should be resizing them automatically right?

so......to get images to actually resize in gallery, i need to add this config line that isnt mentioned anywhere? for 30 million pixels?
its not necessarily huge images just anything over what we put in the settings, which, for this test is 1600px...
it seems more like a bug right??

The config setting is mentioned in the manual and most likely isn't required. It is only required for very large images - we're talking about dimensions in the region of 4,500 x 4,500.
If smaller images are still not being resized, then it will simply be a misconfiguration of permissions and, like anything else, would need analyzing with the Permissions analyzer feature in the Admin CP.

Is it possible to download them by FTP, resize them locally and then upload them by FTP?
If that's possible, could you please tell us the path where they're stored?
for what its worth....we are ending up this by implementing a server level batch compression script...
of the entire, what is it the /data directory if i recall..
beyond the actual compression benefit tho, its a secondary reason, as i always found...any forum or gallery software i tried, bloats images while resizing them for some reason.....xenforo is not different in this regard, so for true optimization it may be best off to batch resize even at the server level....however, for us compressing the padded file seemed suffice.

Thanks! My images weren't resizing either and I noticed the media gallery was ballooning in size. I didn't know there was an image width and height setting for each user group to resize the images.
I set the permissions as such for the "Registered" user group:
Myself, as the administrator, (but still user group of "Registered") tried uploading a file that was 2000px wide and it did not resize down.
What am I missing to get this to work? Over in the attachments section I only had to set the image width like this and the resizing works fine.

I was incorrect. The images ARE resizing properly. I was thrown off by the metadata being reported in the MG for the image showing the original size metrics, and not the resized metrics:
Actual resized image on disk is about 167k, not 443k. I guess metadata is not updated when resized.
