You just need to make sure that the image sizes set in the Configuration of your site are at the same aspect ratio to the images that you are taking. For example, on our digital camera a 640 x 480 size image sizes down nicely to 133 x 100 pixels for a thumbnail. I know this because I used Photoshop to resize the image down, and it kept the constrained proportions on the sizing. So as long as I use a OSCommerce image size that has the same aspect ratio as the photo I'm trying to convert down, it sizes perfectly without distortion.

 

If all of your photos are different sizes, then you have some work to do. You need Photoshop or something like it and you create a background area that is a 'standard size' that is the same aspect ratio as the size of the smaller images you have set in your OSCommerce, and then paste your image onto that background. Then 'Save for the web'. This will give you an image that is going to size down without distortion.

 

Your question is probably less OSCommerce related than it is digital photography related, but hopefully this will give you a start in getting the photos to work.

In configururation/images remove the image height completely. Do not set it to 0.
