 * Image does not seem to want to display fully. It appears to resize with the browser
   but only half the picture is displayed on the page. I’m not sure if I need to
   change the picture size or a css setting.

 * Do you mean only half of the image vertically?

 * OK this is happening because your image is too tall. While plugin does its best
   to scale the image to fit, in order to maintain proportions, the image sometimes
   has go be cropped.

 * Could you please tell me what the optimum size for an image needs to be? I’m 
   trying different sizes and it seems to be hit or miss, even using the same size
   does not consistently display correctly. Thank you.

 * There really isn’t an optimal size since there are so many screen sizes. It really
   depends on your image. Some images work best at 1600×1200, others at completely
   different resolutions.
