Images vertically stretched in Internet Explorer

  • I’m new to WordPress, and just finished publishing a new site, https://www.virtuosostills.com. I developed an published in FireFox, where everything is fine.

    However, all images in my posts are stretched vertically by Internet Explorer. Interestingly, the one image I have on a page (the ‘What We Do’ page) is NOT stretched by IE.

    I have not done any coding around images at all, and almost no coding to speak of in the whole site.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Chris

  • I can’t see any obvious image distortion on your front page using IE9.

    Hmm, well that’s good news. I’m not normally an IE user, so I didn’t know that there was a newer version. Unfortunately for some folks (like me) who only have WinXP, IE 8 is the last usable version.

    But maybe I won’t worry about it, unless someone has some simple solution.

    Thanks,

    The simple solution (and best IMHO) is to use the appropriate sized image for the space you have allowed then link to the larger image. No use wasting bandwidth.

    Take the first image. Whatever plugin or software you are using to downsize the real image, 992×558, to the website image, 569×320, is not working in IE8.

    It is working in IE7 and 9 so another simple solution is a conditional statement.
