Thanks for reporting this. I am looking at the problem but can't see what exactly the cause is for the fact that the images aren't showing at their maximum resolution.

If I right-click on the image and open it in a new window, it is very large:

So there must be some sort of CSS limitation with the wrapping div that is preventing the image from going to max resolution. Ah yes...I see the issue now...it is with img max-width: 100% and the outer div being set at 770px width, so the image is limited to that width as well.

Hmm, I can't think of a way to fix that off the top of my head. A change was made to the CSS so that all images are responsive now, which is very important for proper responsive display of pages on all devices and to achieve that it required setting max-width: 100%.

Let me do some Googling to see if I can find a solution for displaying "responsive" panorama images. I am assuming instead of the image being shrunk to fit the width of the screen, the behavior you'd like to see is that there is a scroll bar across the bottom as it behaved in the past?

Why are the photos all over the place?

It looks like the HTML for the photos was either generated with an older version of the editor or copied and pasted from somewhere else. It didn't appear to be the HTML generated by the new editor.

I went in and edited the HTML to make it conformant with the new CSS definitions. All images are now aligned middle, which is the default behavior and looks the best on all devices regardless of the width of the screen.

OK, should be fixed now. Let me know if it is how you intended it to look. If not, I'd be happy to fix it however you want.

Just to let you know what looked to be the problem -- it appears that somehow the image wrapper containers were split apart from the image. When this happens, the editor tries to "auto fix" the issue but when it did so in this case, it grabbed a bunch of the text and put it in the image container that had a specified width of 500px. That is why the page looked so narrow.

Can you delete all of your cookies related to SummitPost.org and try it again? There was a serious problem with the login system that I just discovered this afternoon. It is amazing that it was working at all.

Essentially am finding that a bunch of my photos no longer display correctly. These are photos that were fine for 10+ years, but no more. E.g., https://www.summitpost.org/ngaurahoe/483713/c-212603. The thumbnail doesn't display, and clicking the high-res view on each says the photos can't be displayed because they contain errors. Thanks for any insight.
