This is an easy question for someone but I can't seem to figure it out on my own. Just looked at my galleries section and my galleries appear a little different.
I have them set to the smugmug style with the square thumbs on the left and a big picture on the right. The big picture on the right doesn't look as big as it used to. how do I get that picture larger?

How many browser tools bars do you have? The page is sized taking into
account the available vertical space.

I don't know what that means :) but it looks how I want it to in firefox. in safari the image on the right (the featured image) of the gallery just looks small. is this something I select on the customize page?

Thanks :)

It all automagic and depends on the browser window size as far as I know.
Vertical widow size is especially important.

How do you make the feature image stay on the right side. Mine is down at the bottom of my thumbnails.

Thanks

Hmmm. This seems to be a problem caused by the theme you've chosen. It is not supposed to do that, but if I clear out your theme, the problem goes away. I wonder if this is a bug in that theme for a non-stretchy gallery? You could try a different theme if there is another one that seems appropriate to you or wait to see if someone else offers another idea.

The theme i am using is a custom theme I created, but I don't know how to fix the problem. If anyone knows how please let me know. Thanks

The problem appears to be caused by this:
#smugmug, #critique, .smugmug #content, .critique #content {
width: 750px;
}
You are limiting the width of your smugmug-style galleries. And it looks like 750px is too narrow.

I don't believe that a narrow display of your photographs is showing them off. I'd recommend widening the amount of the screen that you are using for your galleries. Is there some reason you aren't using stretchy? That allows your viewers to see a reasonable size photo.

And - I'd recommend setting X3Large as your largest display size. The originals will still be used for printing, but as your gallery is set up you are opening up your photos to be stolen. Yes, they are right-click protected, but if a photo can be displayed on a screen in original size, it can also be stolen in that size.

Is there a way to make my BG image stretch without making a new image for the gallery pages? Can I add stretchy to my custom theme? If I can't do either of these can I make the loupeview smaller(Large image in my gallery)?
