    Defining image dimension screwing up my forum images

    I took the recommendation of Juan in here and did this:

    3) Define the 'Define Dimension Attributes' for all your forum images and enable this option: Enable Dimension Attributes for IMG tags
    When I set it to yes, a few things went screwy.

    The new thread image at the top of each forum was stretched, as were the edit button within a thread, and also the edit button on my arcade's leader board. There were a couple more, but can't remember off the top of my head.

    Set it back to 'No' and all were fine again.

    Ideas?

    Did you read the warning below that option?

    NOTE: If you have changed your forum's default image sizes, you MUST update the dimensions above before enabling this feature. Otherwise, all non-conforming images will be distorted.
    Check out the tool I wrote here: Automatically Retrieve Image Dimensions

    Absolutely not. Nor did I obviously search here for answers before I posted. I just basically committed both cardinal sins. What can I say? It was 2 AM

    Thanks a ton, I'll check that tool out.

    And the reason the edit button on your arcade was also distorted is because it shares the same filename as the the other edit button in vBulletin, and the default sample image dimensions included with vBSEO don't include the full path, so it will change any instance of that image name.

    If you use my tool, it will generate the list with the full path so you shouldn't have any issues.
