Samteeeee,

Wow thanks! And I do mean that as it is now useable again… And now i am gonna get sarcastic (Not about your contribution, you did good, but about the problem itself)…

Why is this still broke 8 months after its identified and the only good fix we have is from the community stripping out all image sizing and handling that was so carefully crafted into WP and JP? And its a simple post!?!

I describe it to my clients as “subject for subject, image for image and body for body” and it could be that simple.. I don’t want captions or complicated html and css – i want to send a photo from a mobile device and have it simply posted – NO formatting required – but preferably with sizing the image to the defined size in WP. Boop. Thats all everyone is looking for…

Thanks again for the fix Samteeeee. And if i come across another i will come back here and make some more smart alex remarks and let you all know…

Thanks Jeremy – Something happened right after I did that post which I am unsure how to explain (as far as the cause anyways)… I installed jetpack and activated post by email on a site i set up for a friend who just got married so she and her husband could document their around the world honeymoon trip from their iPhones. While testing it out with a couple of photos, I discovered that it was indeed displaying the photos at 1024×1024 BUT it was also cropping them! So they looked fine! No skewed 4:3 aspect squished into 3:3 aspects! Unlike on every other site i have running post by email…

I am waiting for her OK before i post a link to it – i will tho when she says yes.

The only difference is that i also had “Resize Image After Upload” and “Sharpen Resized Images” turned on at some point trying to resolve the sizing issue – deactivated now but the images are cropped and not squished!

I am going to put this here too – But before I do I also wanted to thank Jeremy and the team for all the jetpack goodness they have created…

AND my problem is described below but i just thought up an interim solution for it. It is likely a complicated process to add so much more image placement control to post by email so would it be easier and possible to remove what is there? I mean the heart of the problem is that it is posting ALL images as 1024×1024 regarless of original size and aspect ratio.

What is happening is that ALL IMAGES sent through jetpacks post-by-email function are sized to a height and width of 1024×1024. Period – i have tried this on multiple installs on multiple domains with multiple versions but have been having the problem with every one. I have tried to edit every possible setting with 1024 as a parameter but i cannot find where that parameter is defined.

So has anyone been able to adjust or fix this in any way besides just resizing the image to be correct after the fact?

So I am searching all the posts related to Jetpack for a fix to a problem i am seeing with my jetpack install to no avail. There are a number of posts that have addressed but there still is no solution anywhere in the forums…
