Pictures are added very small

    Hi!
    Have searched a bit through the last days. Occasionally come across similar problems. Have tried to clear cookies and cach but not working.
    Is this a general problem at the moment? I try to add a picture to my pages and posts, but whatever i do they are added very small and not in the original size. I am using IE9, resize in Photoshop beforehand and then choose 'original size' '300x225'. They are always added way smaller.
    In image gallery they show the right dimensions, but when i try to adjust from the page editor, it shows way smaller dimensions. If i convert from there to original size, it does but the quality detoriates.
    PLEASE HELP! Thanks!

    The blog I need help with is casaamelia.net.

    No the problem is recent! It started yesterday i believe! I think it has been since the update on the 'add media' function! I never had any problems with it.

    I also download straight to the page or post!
    Hope staff can help? Is it a known problem?

    It justed started working again! Or i am going crazy or it was a temporary problem. Downloaded Firefox, tried it there and it seemed to work there! Went back to IE and it worked there as well...
    Anyway for now i am good to go.. Thanks for the help anyway!

    Well, I am glad it's working for some, as for me, I am having that issue. It changes my photos to a really small size, and very frustrating. I can actually go into the html and edit to the correct size, but this is a pain! I even thought of trying it using mozilla, maybe I will. Its been since yesterday or today.

    Ok, check this out, for anybody with the same problem. I was not going crazy. It seems that when i want to add a picture to my page or post, the standard setting for size is 'original size 300x225' (that's the original size, because i resize in photoshop beforehand). If i don't touch this setting, the picture is NOT added in 300x225, but really small. But.. i can solve that by changing the setting first to 'thumbnail' and then back to 'original size 300x225'. It then DOES add the picture in 300x225.

    ok, yes, I tried what you said, and the same results as you. I can get the full size after I hit the thumbnail and back again. At least now I can get that far. Thanks for that tip. I hope they see it as a possible glich and get it fixed.

    Good to hear it worked the same in your case. It must be a general problem then.
