My screen resolution is the standard 1024x768 used by 36% of the online population. I am using Firefox 4.0 and your images now look fine. :)

Using google chrome on this laptop, your latest posted looks correct.

Those earlier posted pictures on your homepage look still look distorted,
perhaps if you reduce the sizes of the images they will render correctly.

I changed the header on the post I just updated, and I'm wondering if that fixed the problem. I changed the height of the image to 60% and it looks like it worked, but I'm not sure.

To locate the width tor Ocean Mist consult this list please. http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/07/23/maximum-image-width/

But I am going to guess that the problem in Chrome may be that the browser is incorrectly resizing your photos because of their width is to wide.

your latest picture for example is 800 pixels wide and the space in that theme is 497.

on the latest image :

go back to the post editor and click on the photo with your mouse
two icons side by side show up... the left was is the "edit Image" click on that
resize the image to 60 percent
hit update.

The image will now be correctly within the limits of the blog.

(When someone clicks you photo it will still open to the origional 800 pixel with that you uploaded--- as that is still the origional file... and Chrome should be able to render the image correctly in the blog view.)

Here's some screenshots on what happens when people visit the site at 1920x1080 on Chrome.
