 * I got a problem with nextgen gallery, that you can only resize thumbnail pictures
   keeping the aspect ratio, or criple the images with not keeping the aspect ration,
   or crop the image but to square only.
    The problem is, that it is impossible 
   to make a functional design without cripled images – I need all pictures to have
   same width and height, even if it would mean that i will see just a part of the
   image. So I need the pictures to crop the center of the image (optimum would 
   be an option per picture to select left top, left center, left bottom, center
   top, center center, center bottom, left top… or percentage) but not to square
   only, but to defined width×height.

 * Do you have solved ? I’m searching something similar with a manual crop.
 * the images are automatic cropped if you set “Set fix dimension” in the options

 * But with scissors do you know how can i crop exactly a picture ? If i want a 
   thumb cropped picture with fixed dimension , for example 150 x 180, how can i
   do this ? Now if i crop a picture with scissors i have the dimension in the settings
