Robert,
Krunchnik said your photo looked a "little squished." A lot of mine used to be distorted like that.

The member who helped me out with this photo problem was CT_Shooter. So I dug around on his previous posts, remembering he helped someone else with this back in January. Here is that post: http://henryrifleforums.com/viewtopic.p ... 639#p81639

Photos on this forum are best displayed in 4:3 ratio, so I resized yours to 1024x768.
I'd suggest you try making that adjust and see if the distortion is handled.

P.S. Just saw the same distortion issue in your "Uberti 1873, 45 Colt" thread.

not that it really matters, but the picture is actually stretched vertically, which makes it appear squished horizontally. Whats weird is that in 'preview' the pictures aren't distorted, but are when 'submitted'. A while back I visited the phpBB Software bug report website. Looks like there are some php script fixes for how pictures are handled, so hopefully we'll see those proliferated here as part of the underway maintenance updates.

There are modifications to the scripts that should resolve this issue; hopefully, Dave's new assistant can manage to correct it. In the meantime, using a 4:3 ratio for image dimensions works.

Also if you right click the image and select open image in a new tab you can see the non-distorted image.

A very nice looking .45 shooter! How well does it shoot and do you reload for it?
