I have notice this as well. Did something happen on the upgrade earlier this week? There is a scroll bar at the bottom of posts but it is still difficult to get a feeling for the whole quilt when we can only view a portion of it at a time. Is there anything I can do on my end, such as adjust settings?

I am having the same problem. I have always resized my pics - never had any trouble until yesterday. Have not changed anything in the way I have been posting pics - but now they are huge!

i have contacted the tech team. in the meantime it is extremely easy to make sure your photos post in a pleasing size.
1. Use the icon with the little tree to insert your photos. do NOT ... i repeat ... DO NOT ... use either the paperclip icon or the blue "Manage Attachments" button.
2. select and upload your photo as usual.
3. once it appears in the body of your post double-click on it.
4. pick the size and position options of your preference. (i usually use center and either medium or large.)
easy peezy.

thanks Patrice, you may wish to include in this to ensure your settings are set to WYSIWYG. I just now figured that out and finally have the little tree icon. I never had it before!
DOH! It has been almost 6 months and I am still trying to figure the board out.

upgrades are necessary. they involve a lot of work, so they are not executed capriciously.
there were some things that weren't working correctly and a few that needed improvement.
the techs have fixed the photo problem. i don't know if past posts of oversized photos will go back to normal. but photos uploaded from now on should behave.

Boy I am so glad others were having the same problem. I kept thinking it was Computer and was swearing at it. I even asked my BIL about it and he didn't think they should have changed just like that. I hope this change will work. Wish me luck.....and thanks for checking on this so soon.
