Hey all,
I've been working on image uploading in my Javascript based extension. Although embedding local images after uploading them works fine, there's the use case of wanting to embed images already uploaded to the wiki. I could use the AllImages API and the the url's of all the images but that would be a tremendous amount of network usage compared to a world in which I can simply get the thumbnails. I know the urls exist for the images because you can "copy link address" on the thumbnail when you're viewing the file description page.
So, is there a way, using one of the many MW API's, to get the thumbnail url's for all the images?
Thanks,
Garrett
