When uploading images through the gallery field, the original image gets altered.
Assuming i will upload an image with file dimension 1200 x 767 (file size 100kb) and my upload parameters are like this:
I would presume, that my pictures will not be processed. Unfortunately they will be. They become 1200 x 767 (260KB) .. so the file size increases by 1.5 times and actually there is a visible loss of quality.
Even worse, all the original picture information like TIFF info and EXIF info is erased, that should never be the case.
If the original gets processed (original has bigger dimensions than field parameters), let the user of this field define the quality factor and dont change the embedded image info.
