    I am using Meteor Slides in the Modern Blogger Pro Genesis Theme for my wife’s new website (www.bitbyfit.com). So far I have uploaded 2 images to the header. Both are 1148 by 223.

    For some reason, 1 of the images look and scale perfectly on my PC but not on my iPad and iPad Mini. The other image doesn’t scale correctly on my PC but is perfect on the Pads.

    Anyone knows WTF is going on? I have tried fixing this for hours and I have no idea what is making this happen.

    Thanks for the help in advance

    Hi, it looks like both images are scaling properly now, did you get it figured out?

    Hi John,

    A lot of trial and error ??

    On my PC, just regenerating thumbnails fixed the problem. However it still didn’t work on iPad. On the iPad, it seems like the picture remembers how it was originally orientated. One of the pictures was taken as a vertical image and then rotated and cropped to fit the horizontal header. When viewed on the iPad (but not on PC), the picture always aligned itself vertically no matter what I did, messing up the header. The only solution was to delete all images that were taken as vertical and only use the others.

    I have no idea why this would be the case (or if it even is the real reason), but it works for now…

    Are you sizing all the images to fit the slideshow exactly before uploading them? That will get you the best results.

    Jep, all images sized as 1148X400 before uploading.

    I have looked at all the properties of the images and they are 100% identical. There must be some tag somewhere specifying their original alignment that I can’t find

    Everything looks good to me, I can’t see any reason it would look different on your iPad. I would try clearing the cache on your iPad’s browser, maybe it is loading the old images.

    Does each slideshow you do have to be scaled the same? I want one size for my header, but need another size for inside a post. Thanks
