REsized images on home page

hmmm. could it be that the image you have uploaded is too short for the spec, so the code is stretching the height to fulfill its instructions?

I don’t think so. It’s a large image 655 pixels wide. I don’t understand why it’s getting resized as I’m just trying to insert it into an article. I’ve done this a thousand times before without any issue. It must have something to do with the template??

655 pixels wide -- ok. How tall is it?

Interestingly when I click on the image properties from my browser I see this:
150px

Aha -- good discovery. I’ve got nothing to help. You need a developer for this. I suggest that you re-post your last post here as a new question, and select the option for assistance from tech support.

the reason your frontpage images being resized by the following script:
…/templates/ja_ruby/html/com_content/frontpage/default.php

Code:

	<?php $i = $this->pagination->limitstart;
	$rowcount = $this->params->def('num_leading_articles', 1);
	for ($y = 0; $y < $rowcount && $i < $this->total; $y++, $i++) : ?>
		<div class="leading<?php echo $this->params->get('pageclass_sfx'); ?>">
			<?php $this->item =& $this->getItem($i, $this->params);
      //Leading image size			
      $this->imageWidth = 350;
      $this->imageHeight = 471;
			echo $this->loadTemplate('item'); ?>
		</div>
	<?php endfor; ?>

I have the same problem on my site. I believe the solution is in the Members Only (JA_OPAL and JA_RUBY) boards which I do not have access to 🙁

So from my understanding…

Is it NOT possible for the Front Page of these templates to have a blog roll format?

As of now.. multiple articles are appearing as:

[ —-- Article —-- ]
[ Article] [Article]
[ Article] [Article]
[ Article] [Article]

I want them to appear as:

[ —-- Article —-- ]
[ —-- Article —-- ]
[ —-- Article —-- ]
[ —-- Article —-- ]

However, modifying the image resizing doesn’t do justice.
Why? Each article has different sized images and alignment.

IE: One article aligns the image to the left, while another may to the right.
However, due to the template’s auto image resizing and alignment -- this cannot be accomplished.

Thoughts?
