    Hi

    Myself and a friend have created this site and are stuck. Its a property listing site and we want people to upload their photos to be included in their advert and want them to appear clear ect...but when we upload some images they seem to go fuzzy and out of shape...any ideas what we need to do we are both stuck.

    We dont really want them to have to resize photos before uploading as this might put people off but the fuzzy photos look so bad. It seems to have a problem with horizontal photos

    It happens, when an image is scaled up. The best solution is to have your images displayed at the same physical size they are in, without any scaling done by a code.

    I agree.. resizing the image can only cause distortion, not all image can be resized proportionally..:)

    One option would be to ask advertisers to upload pics only in a certain dimension, else the ads get rejected, that way you can ensure you don't get pics in different dims and then scaled down in size.

    Would you let me know if you have created this site yourself, or using a script purchased from someone?

    Thx
