• I am trying to make my slideshow 320 wide by 275 tall. I made the image that I am uploading 320 X 275 in illustrator and exported it as a jpg. When I upload it to the meteor slide it says it is 309 X 143 and on the site it looks squished together and not right.

    The website is rockymountainfc.com

    Thanks in advance

    Hi, your theme is shrinking the image to a 150px wide:

    img.wp-post-image {
        border: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
        height: 150px;
        margin: 5px;
        overflow: hidden;
        width: 150px;
    }

    Either delete that width line, or make the rule more specific so it doesn’t affect sidebar images.

    The image is still cropped a bit, to avoid that make sure that the slide images are 320×275 before you upload them.

    Thanks for the help:) I am having trouble seeing where that code is located. Where do I go to change it? (sorry I’m totally new to this)

    Also, How do I get my computer to not crop the image vertically when I export it to a jpg from an illustrator file?

    Thanks again

    No problem, you’ll find that code in your theme’s style.css file on line 73. You should be able to just delete width: 150px; to fix it.

    Can’t say that I use Illustrator much, but when I do I usually bring my graphics into Photoshop to produce the final web version.

    Thanks for the help on the graphic thing, I was able to fix that.

    I am still getting the same issue on the other thing though. I tried to delete the width and change it to 320 and neither way is changing the way the slideshow images appear (still at 150 x 150).

    I still see the height and width values set in that rule. Did you edit them through the theme editor or via FTP?

    through the theme editor

    Check in the theme editor below where you edit the code to make sure it doesn’t have an error about the file permissions, your changes might not be saved.

    it says “file edited successfully”. I still had the height value in there when you checked it. I just took that out too.

    Cool, it looks right to me now! Try clearing your browser cache if you aren’t seeing the changes.
