 * Is there something in the coding of template that auto-sizes my pictures? Regardless
   of whether I select “use thumbnail” or not, the pictures I post all appear to
   be just about the same size. I don’t believe the source photos are the same size;
   I don’t know enough css to figure out whether the template is auto-sizing the
   pictures. The url is [http://www.hated-it.com](http://www.hated-it.com)
 * Thanks to anyone who can help.

 * In the alternative, can someone suggest where in the coding I’d look for a command
   that would be doing this?

 * All your images have a “height=96” bit in them that is forcing them down to size.
   I have no idea where this is coming from, however.
 * Are you dragging and dropping your images into the editor or something? Don’t
   do that. Click them and use the button to send them to the editor instead.

 * WP is not an image editing tool, which means you should edit (resize) your images
   _before_ uploading them.
    The thumbnails are created automatically when you upload
   a picture using the inline uploader. After the upload you should have an option
   to select what do you want to display: thumb or original size.

 * I do use the “send to” command. I will try uploading a resized image, but won’t
   the line-height issue mentioned above obviate that anyway? Selecting original
   or thumbnal in the image uploader has no effect – I’ve tried it both ways.
