Thumbnail Cropping

[Michaela]

I have just installed my gallery at http://cote-depablo.com/gallery. Before adding any images I want to get it so that all thumbnails appear the same size regardless if they are landscape or portrait. I have tried installing stramm, but each time it failed. Can anyone tell me how I would do this an alternative way? (If possible) and in as basic english as possible. I'm still getting to grips with this.

[Stramm]

config ->Thumbnail settings -> use dimension -> exact

[Michaela]

Will that not squash images so they fit into that size?

[Stramm]

Existing thumbs yes... except you use the admin tools to recreate them.

Oh, great thank you! THat must be why it didn't work before!
