   Since a few days ago I have ran my own wordpress-blog and it works great. I've installed NextGen and Lightbox for my pictureviewing.

   My only problem is that Lightbox does not auto-resize nor center the images to fit the screen and this is kinda annoying. I have googled and tried to find every (any?) solution to this problem but I haven't.

   Have never coded anything so it's quite hard for me to get this working. I have read about several people who hacked earlier versions of Lightbox, but these versions don't seem to work on WP 2.7. I have tried.

   I use this following version of Lightbox:
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/lightbox-2/

   FancyBox does all the tricks with auto-resizing and centering to fit the screen, however I like the LB-design much more and LB is faster.

   Here are some urls I've found with "hacks" however they haven't worked on the version I use.

   I've added auto resize to one of the wordpress lightbox 2 plugins. Now my post about that is also available in English: http://nooxnet.com/2009-07-12/lightbox-2-with-auto-resize-in-wordpress/
