I am switching to the Kubrick theme which is a lot narrower than my current theme. I tried adjusting "Width of the table for file display (pixels or %)" to a narrow size but it appears that this will only apply to new photos that get uploaded. Well you can see what I am talking about at the link below:

Make sure to choose the Kubrick theme and you will see how the photo stretches out the theme and it cycles over.
If your pictures are wider than what the theme allows, this happens. The same thing happens if you have panoramic thumbnails - it stretches the theme to fit.
If you change the max width/height of intermediate images to a smaller number, you can then use the admin tools to create new intermediate images. That will solve your problem.
Thanks kegobeer. I never used this feature. Took awhile with all my albums and photos but it worked great. *raises thumb*
