Thread:Project:Support desk/How to use only small images from commons.wikimedia.org?/reply (3)

Hello Krinkle,

I have the same problem as Fokebox.

It seems my database is getting bigger with every InstantCommons pic I include on my wiki. Are the pics saved in the database? I couldn't find any of the pics in my images folder...

Does your suggestion (apiThumbCacheExpiry => 0) bring along any drawbacks?

Thanks, Stefan
