# image crop?

 * Hello:
 * I am trying to create a page which lists category posts using a query…here is
   the page: [http://privatelabel.gtdsites.com/cat-one/](http://privatelabel.gtdsites.com/cat-one/)
 * this is just a test version; got it all working – the problem is that the thumbnails
   are not resizing to the exact same size like i had hoped; i have the image size
   set to 173×203 and that works; but if image sizes are different it doesnt work
   so well; that it would take the upper left portion of the pic that would fit 
   into 173×203; it would take the biggest piece it could and of course resize it;
   it seems there are other wordpress things that do this (they may take center 
   portion though; which i guess would be fine as well)…
 * anyway; i tried to put this “true” thing on there that i thought would crop it
   but that doesnt seem to have done anything;
 * the code for displaying the thumbnail is this:
 * <div id=”gpic1″>
    <?php the_post_thumbnail(“gthumb”,array(‘class’ => ‘frame’));?
   > </div>
 * i also put this code into custom_functions.php (thesis theme):
 * function add_custom_sizes() {
    add_image_size( ‘gthumb’, 173, 203, true ); add_image_size(‘
   portfolio-image’, 1074, 725, true ); add_image_size( ‘available-homes’, 500, 
   279, true ); add_image_size( ‘idea-thumb’, 146, 141, true ); } add_action(‘after_setup_theme’,’
   add_custom_sizes’);
 * so anyway; i have no idea how to make this work; was trying to find a way to 
   do this and piece it together but cant get this final part to work; can anyone
   help?
 * thanks, Gerard

 * This new function does not change existing media – did you upload and add the
   media afterwards? When doing so do you see your custom sizes?
