Hello:

I'm new to the photo gallery plugin for WordPress and pre-crop photos in Photoshop. What is the best size to crop the photos so they all look uniform?

Thank you

Dear Cathy,

There is a cropping functionality in WordPress Photo Gallery as well. Do you want to re-size the images or just to crop them?

I would like to resize and crop. I'd like to use the slideshow view so I've tried croping at a fixed size of 800x500 and then reduce image size to around 1280 by whatever (I make sure the size is over 800). I'd like all the photos to be full screen in the slide show, but some have black lines showing. I've tried saving the same photo 10 times, but every way I try it somethings not quite right. Then I go to do it on the next photo and it looks different. What should I do first, resize or crop? What dimensions should I use, either in Photoshop or this program?

Thank you,
Cathy

Dear Cathy,

Can you please give us a link to your gallery page and tell us what black line you mean ?

Here's a link to the page:

The third photo is full frame, but not the other two.

Here's a link to the gallery and the cropping sizes:

P.S. Sorry for posting the same question twice in two different places, but I did Image gallary and then found Photo gallery and wasn't sure if they were the same thing.

Dear Cathy,

Your first two images should have the same size as the third one. You can't do that within gallery.

I got it figured out in Photoshop. Thank you.
