[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Thumbnails "squished" in Internet Explorer

Link ? Check behaviour with the default theme

https://www.dandylyondesigns.com is the site.
I checked the behavior using the default theme, and the thumbnails looked normal in Internet Explorer, so I guess the problem is with the theme I am using. I’d really like to use the theme I am currently using and have customized. Do you have a suggestion as to what type of code or what area of the stylesheets I should look in in my current theme (ZenLite v3.52) to try to fix the IE issue?

Thanks!

Have you checked Developer Tools when looking at your site in IE?

Hit F12 to get there. Find the area in question under the HTML tab (it’s the default when the window opens) and on the right it will show the CSS.

I’m guessing that’s were your problem is.

I highlighted the thumbnail block in IE and hit F12 as you suggested and there was a line of code highlighted in the HTML. I clicked on the CSS tab and another line was highlighted. It is the font size in the footer of the layout.CSS. Not sure why this would be the issue, I did not place the thumbnails in the footer, they are inserted as a gallery in the page post. Should I adjust the font size to see if that fixes it?

Thanks so much, I am a novice at this stuff, so I really appreciate your taking the time to offer solutions.

It’s the entry in your layout.css .hentry IMG.

Try commenting out that entry and see what it does to the rest of your site. If it messes things up let me know and I can suggest a few things.

Paul you are awesome! That did the trick, now the thumbnails work right in Firefox & IE. Thank you so very much! Again I truly appreciate your taking the time to help and fix my issue.

I noticed after I posted that your image above your galleries (i.e. identity, web design, etc.) was extending ever so slightly beyond your page design. It’s very slight but if it does become a problem try adding width: auto to the .hentry IMG entry (uncomment it first) and see what that does. It worked when I did it.

Thanks again, Paul. I’ll give that a try. Thanks so much!

I’m having the same problem with “squished” thumbnails in my gallery. The problem goes away when I change to a different theme. I tried the Developer Tool in IE8 but couldn’t find anything. Does anyone have a solution for my site? https://www.heartinkandsoul.com/blog.

Thanks!

I finally found a fix. I unchecked the box “Crop thumbnail to exact dimensions (normally thumbnails are proportional)” under “Settings” for “Media”. Now everything looks fine in IE.

i have got the same problem but the solutions i read doesn’t fix it.
thumbnails are squised in IE 6, but looks great with Firefox and IE 7.

thanks!

These other solutions weren’t working for me. I finally fixed the squished thumbnail problem with css from NativePaul found in this thread. Thanks!
