embed images

chrismoore

Please tell me if I missed a relevant post here, but this week I noticed that several images I have embedded on my pages have changed size. An example is the badge just above my footer links. The code is this:

<div id="myFooterimg"><img src="/photos/478046765_2XZLM-150x400.jpg" border="0"></div>

The 150x400 gave me the small size I wanted. Now, it is showing up in full size. When I paste that image link into a browser, it automatically converts it to ...O.jpg which I guess is why it is showing up full size. Was there a change in the way image sizes are specified using "img src"? If I'm missing a known piece of information i would appreciate direction to the relevant post.
Thanks

Andy

the image in the footer here?

Yes, it seems to be related to whether I'm logged in or not. Here is how it is supposed to look (screenshot from Flock, NOT logged in):



Here is how it started showing up (screenshot from Flock, while logged in):



As I said, the image is referenced in the custom footer for all pages. In addition, when I paste the image url with custom sizing (http://www.chrismooreimages.com/photos/478046765_2XZLM-150x400.jpg) into the browser WHILE logged in, it automatically converts it to the original (http://www.chrismooreimages.com/photos/478046765_2XZLM-O.jpg). If I paste the url into the browser while NOT logged in, the sizing holds true.

So I guess since it only looks this way while I'm logged in, no one else is seeing the enlarged image and I shouldn't worry about it. Still, this just started happening this week and I have not changed any code recently and its somewhat annoying so I would like to fix it if you have any ideas as to what is happening.
Thanks so much for your help.

Well my theory about this only happening while logged in is not true. I opened my site in Firefox while not logged in and the image is being displayed as original size, not the dimensions I specified in the image src. Maybe its a browser issue? its happenend on safari, flock and FF. However when Andy pulled up a page it looked normal for some reason. The page I pulled up in FF was:

which showed this:



I know that workarounds could be uploading a new version of the image with a pre-upload size equivalent that what I want to display, and trying to get close using ...S.jpg or ...Th.jpg, but this is only one example of several embedded images that have reverted to original sizes. Another example is my signature on the About page- it used to be small and now its showing up large, again whether I'm logged in or not, and on multiple browsers.

Any ideas? please help!!
