It looks like a theme issue. Can you show us a page with the problem?
Hi Andrew:
Unfortunately it is on an Intranet that is not publicly accessible.
When you suggest it is a theme issue what would cause this? The widget was placed in a container area that is 100% of the theme wide.
I have other sites that I have yet to upgrade and test with different themes. I will test on those as well.
When I change the column count from 2 columns to 9 columns the icons appear fine. I do not know if that is because the number of columns exceeds the number of thumbnails.
Just to be sure I am adding this widget into full width footer.

There are 6 images of different sizes in the gallery.

Try deactivating all of your plugins to explore whether any could be responsible. If none are, keep all plugins deactivated and switch to the Twenty Seventeen theme to check whether it’s an issue with your theme.
Hi Andrew:
I will be able to do this over Thanksgiving as this is a production site that is working fine otherwise.
I just wanted to test out the new 4.9 features before one of the other content editors tried it out and complained to me. 🙂
Is there a video, page, site dedicated to visually showing what to expect and how to use the new improvements?
Thanks again,
Richard
I just was sent this link from someone: http://www.wpbeginner.com/news/whats-new-in-wordpress-4-9/
It appears to have a basic rundown of the changes with pictures.
Any better sites would be appreciated.
I wonder if the fact that the widget is being placed in a widget footer area that is the full width of the screen rather than just a sidebar’s width has anything to do with the image distortion.
I just spoke with someone else who can see the same issue with larger width widget areas.

Thanks Andrew! This will make for some interesting reading today.
