Dreamwidth issue

[dreamshark]

 After peer pressure forced me to Dreamwidth I spent a long, unhappy time customizing my feed so that large pictures didn't totally break it.

Well, I haven't changed anything, but suddenly I can't view large pictures again. I have had to filter guppiecat from my feed because of his beautiful but ginormous photos. I can only see a fraction of the image with other frames from my feed style floating on top of it. Unfortunately, I can't remember what the setting was that resized pictures to fit inside the window. Does anyone remember? guppiecat, if you know maybe you can send me a private message. As I said, I just can't view your posts anymore. 

Alternatively, what pre-created templates work with large pictures? I couldn't find one that I liked when I first got here, but if custom templates don't stay stable maybe I have no choice.  

Have I mentioned that I kinda hate Dreamwidth?

I am using the "Ivory Alcea" theme, which seems to work fine for me.

Which theme are you using?

I believe I tried Ivory Alcea and didn't care for it, so I created a customized theme that resized images and also had a layout that I liked. Everything else about that theme is still fine, but it's no longer resizing images to fit.

EasyRead ( https://www.dreamwidth.org/customize/?layoutid=110057 ) works for me.

One thing that helps almost any layout is to put the sidebar on the left, or move its contents to the header and footer. That way anything that fails to resize properly will disappear off into the right-hand margin and hopefully not damage the rest of your layout much.

Probably true, but more when you're looking at an image that is literally displaying at a size much larger than the size of your monitor. I gather that you don't have this problem. What style are you using?

EasyRead - see link in my previous comment. Also, I usually use Chrome, and occasionally Firefox. I have no idea how well it works in other browsers.
