Image sizes

So based on the API this is the image sizes I can use. But I am using this taken for the actual website: https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w1400_and_h450_bestv2
Where can I find more information these sizes? I think there are many more sizes that isnt mentioned in the API docs. It would really mean a lot to me. I can really improve the performance of my project. Thanks.

Hi @isakurehpaz,
Choosing to use anything that is not listed in the configuration method is not officially supported. I can't stop you from doing that of course but I make no guarantees that that image size will exist permanently like the officially supported ones. There is no information about any other sizes because they aren't supported on the API.

The actual website uses some of them so thats why. Do you guys have your own API on top of the one that is accessible by the public? And Is there any plans to add more options?

I have lots of features that are only available to me
I might add support for some official "small", "medium" and "large" face cropping sizes. Odd timing on this because I just rebuilt or image service and have a whole new set of images that will be going live this week. The
bestv2images are being retired. The new face detection and cropping is better thanbestv2.I can see other people using
bestv2in the logs and this is precisely why I have always discouraged their use. They'll stop working at some point in the next week or so.Reply by isakurehpaz

travis share some of these features with us
alright. Looking forward using the new face detection & cropping. Btw you guys should consider making a premium version of the API. Me and I am sure many others would pay for it. Thanks for the response.
