Image size on posts

@twiggs,
It would help immensely if you post a link to your site. There are lots of possible reasons why the image would not appear 800px wide. Have you looked at the properties of the image itself (click on the image, then the little “landscape icon”) to see if the settings on the image are to be less than full size?

sorry, you are right! here it is: https://www.aplacefortwiggs.com/

but now there are only 560px images, because i was just testing the post with a wider image.

and yes, i have seen those properties and it says full-size… that is why i don’t understand where am i failing!

thank you! ??

That does help.
On line 109 of your style.css, there is a max-width property for images in your entries

div.entry img {
    border: medium none;
    height: auto;
    max-width: 540px;
}

This is keeping your images from getting bigger than 540px wide.
(I used Firebug to inspect the CSS properties applied to your images…)

@twiggs, yes Robert is right. it works for me…

Thanks, Robert.

@robert thank you so much! I looked through the CSS but didn’t find that line of code! Now everything makes sense… and i was thinking that my images were 560px… well, they are, but they get re-sized for 540px, which is not that much of a difference for my eyes.

Thread solved ??
