That piece of code has no effect on it referencing the original file, it still chooses a file with the widthx500px.jpg at the end. No matter what I change the numbers to it is always 500 high.
Can you explain where in that code that it resizes the image to 500px? What actually happens when I add an image in wordpress then I choose to use it as a slide that would add the size to the end of the filename?
I have had no luck trying to search ??

Nope, it still crops the height down to 500px at that ratio too.
Instead of referencing my original file …/picture.jpg, firebug tells me it is showing the image …/picture-18720×500.jpg
I need to find where in the code it tells it to crop the width to 500px and change that.

So there is no where I can change that auto height for slider images higher than 500px?
I can change the code below but then the image is still loading resized at 500px high even though I uploaded 800px high so I just get blank space above and below.

.carousel .item {
line-height: 800px;
min-height: 800px;
overflow: hidden;
}

I just want a nice big slider with higher resolution images.

Hi, thanks for replying.
If I upload an image (picture.jpg) and lets say it is 1920×800 and I decide to use it as a slider image, when it is inserted in the slider the image it references to use has been resized to 1920×500 (cropping the image) and will have 1920×500 after the name of the file like… /picture-1920×500.jpg
Now if I am on a screen that has a resolution wider than 500 pixels, the 1200×500 image size recommended is enlarged to fit the space so the image looks all pixelated. But the 1920×800 image is cropped to 1920×500 and looks clear but it won’t fill the height because it has been automatically cropped.
So instead of the largest image size of 1200×500, I guess what I am asking for is to figure out how to change it to be 1920×800 and can still scale down nicely as part of the responsive theme.

Thanks, I guess I am not good at describing my issue.
I mean that the image that it references if it is bigger then 500px will have added at the end …image-1920×500.jpg or whatever the width was and then 500. If the image was 500px wide it will just reference the original file. How can I change those numbers at the end?
