You set a max dimension for the thumbnail - let's say "100 pixels". If the original pic you're going to convert into a thumbnail has landscape orientation with e.g. 1600 x 1200 pixels, the thumbnail will be 100 x 75 (1200 * 100 / 1600). If the original is 768 x 1024 (portrait orientation), the thumbnail will be 75 x 100 (768 * 100 / 1024).

I see, it basically will make the largest side of the image the size you set. As opposed to making the hieght or width the size you set.

I think this way of setting it will keep your landscape and portrait thumb images alot closer in size.

Thanks for he reply!
