    I am having great difficulty with pictures today. I have all my pictures the same size as always (1200x675) and 16:9 format. When I upload they seem normal, but as soon as I send them they are transformed into 4x4? - cutting them off at both ends.
    I havent done anything different. Is there some new rule on picture size?

    Thanks Csaba! That's indeed weird - we are looking into it.

    I can confirm that we were able to replicate the problem, seems to be a bug. We don't recall changing anything with regard to picture sizing logic, so will need to investigate. The problem appears to be limited to group posts, not articles. We'll keep you posted.

    Thanks for letting us know Robert. We have identified the source of the issue, and it affects group posts as well as comments. Articles themselves are not affected. Fixing it might take a while at least until beginning of next week.

    Have to throw my hat in the ring as well. On my last WIP update on the Skyray. Most of the images were resized not to fit the intended view.

    Another issue with the cropping of group images is adding notes. Originally, when editing and adding notes to photos, the photo is full size. When you post the reply, the photo is cropped and the note's red dots no longer point to where I intended them to. I had to edit the post and move the red dots to the proper place in the cropped photo.

    Add my name to the list as well. It just cropped the last pictures I posted on the B-25 "Stuff" from the Nose Art GB. I added my notes to the photos after they were posted.
