   Hello
   Firstly, Mini loops is awesome.

   Second, I'm wrestling with a question I'm having trouble answering myself. I've set up a Mini Loop on my site that calls a bunch of posts with images attached to them. The images are all rectangular. Presently, Mini Loops will create thumbnails for each my images by cropping the biggest square possible from the center of each image. *Instead* I would like Mini Loops to create thumbnails based on the thumbnails that I have manually cropped for each of these images. Is this possible?

   I know that I could add a custom field to each of my posts to work around this issue, but with dozens and dozens of these images already in my WordPress database, I'd rather not. Plus, my other users will find this workaround confusing.

   Thanks!
   Mike

   Could you post the code (via pastebin.com or similar) you're presently using?

   You may be able to simply pass 'auto' as the height and width attributes.
   [image width=auto height=auto]

   Hi.
   Thanks for writing back.
   Here's the code I'm using:

   <li class="talent-page"><h4><a href="[url]">
   [ml_image from=first width=188 height=188
   class=aligncenter fallback='http://fireworktheater.com/wp-content/themes/carrington-vanilla/images/image-coming-soon.png'] [ml_title]</a>
   </h4>
   </li>

   Thanks!

   -oh, and I tried using:
   [image width=auto height=auto]
   and that pulled in the top left corner of the hi rez version of each of the images. In other words, it didn't work.
