You would need to have a larger version of the image to show when you need it, there is no way around it really.

What do you mean :?

Instead of having one image, you would create two :?

Can you give more information as to the problem you are having ?

Set height and width.

You may need to create a new class to set the height and width though.

So you wan tit to be cropped.

I guess you would have to do that with php when they upload the image to create the avatar, I explained it (ish) in the image gallery video.
