Hello Karl, I'm using latest stable version of Imagevue. Since I'm trying a CDN service I'd like to know how to setup Imagevue to use it.
In my case and for that CDN I've to use cdn.domain.com instead of www.domain.com so I'd have to change all the image url so they are
http://cdn.domain.com/images/xy.jpg
instead of
http://www.domain.com/images/xy.jpg
Obviously I can't do that manually. Is there any way I can do that automatically?
I'll use this system also for Imagevue 3 whel will be ready...
Thanks!

Using a CDN to serve images2 posts
Re: Using a CDN to serve images
What CDN is this? I am not quite sure how this will be done, because in X2 and certainly X3, the images are processed through a PHP script to deliver the correct size. Therefore it would not work to simply change the URL unless it is static. It could probably be achieved with a htaccess rewrite, although strictly speaking, I am not sure if that would be recommended.
The most known CDN service in the world https://www.cloudflare.com/, don't require changing URL's to all images ... They will simply distribute your assets in their CDN as they are requested. You can use cloudflare with Imagevue X2 and X3 without changing anything. I imagine a few other services work in similar fashion.
We are setting up op our own powerful virtual server in NY this week (its already up), and my guess is that general performance will beat servers with CDN, but I am looking forward to do some tests.
