Hello all.

Is there any way to change(easily) the vertical sizing of a thumbnail? My site address is:

I would love it if the thumbnail would better represent the vertical format of the photograph. There seems to be some space for this. Am I missing anythiny? Yes I did use the "12cropimage," but couldn't change the ratio to be more vertical.

Thanx in advance

You want to have a vertical column of thumbnails or you want to have thumbnails in Portrait size ratio instead of Landscape?

1) to have a vertical column of thumbnail images you can use them inside a fixed width <div style="width=100px;"> <THUMBNAILS></div>
2) to set thumbnail size browse to admin panel >> options >> thumbnails and set the width and height of thumbnails there. you can decrease the width and increase the height value to get a Portrait size ratio.
3) When resizing the crop window in 12CropImage, it keeps a fixed width/height ratio which is equal to the preset width/height value in admin>>options>>thumbnails.
4) if you dont want cropping of thumbnails and you want to keep the width/height ratio of each image in its thumbnail, you can turn off cropping in admin panel >> options >> thumbnails >>crop image. But it's not recommended 'cause you end up with thumbnails in many different sizes and it's not good on viewers' side.
