We are fairly new to BV and had just finalized our site when we upgraded to 5.8. We are having real trouble with the images.
Our programmers set up the small images to 145 x 100 and the medium to <span class="FormLabel">175 x 145 with the DO NOT FORCE SIZES option checked.
The parameter for the large picture was to be anything 700 width with any height.
When uploading the images, many of the small are too squat and look terrible. The mediums look perfect.
It is making our adding new products a torture because its so slow and the image on the backend will look perfectly in proportion in the upload box <span class="FormLabel">while the same image on the front website is squashed. So we have to check the front website every time and cannot unsquash. Our whole site is dotted with this problem and I know we are doing something really wrong because no one ever posts about this problem and our programmer says it is the way the program is set up.
Is it possible to slice out that part of BC6 that just automatically sizes images, or can anyone advise. Is there a more standard parameter for the large. An Ex . SKU 973272 on our site.

It's possible that image sizes are being incorrectly set on the frontend by CSS; this can happen regardless of the "do not force sizes" setting in the admin. Can you post a link to a page that's showing the problem?

This is the small image.

This is the medium image. It usually turns out perfectly.

The small looks perfectly fine in the upload box.

Looks like you have them forced in category.css

Possibly forced in html as well

&lt;img src="<a target="_blank" href="view-source:http://www.kitchenworksinc.com/Images/SMALL/973272.jpg">/Images/SMALL/973272.jpg</a>" id="ctl00_MainContentHolder_ResultsRpt_ctl00_ProductImage" border="0" <span class="attribute-name">
width="134" height="127" alt="HENCKELS PROFESSIONAL S KNIFE STARTER SET 973272" <span class="attribute-name">/&gt;</pre>

</div>
</div></div>
