It may be simple to fix. In osCommerce under Configuration --> Images you have a Small Image Width and a Small Image Height. Edit the Small Image Height to nothing (remove what's in there). Then your image widths will all be the same, but if your images are different sizes then the height will vary according to the size of the image - width will be constant. This is most often the cause of distorted images.

also when you are in your congfiguration if you leave the image height and width alone then jot down those numbers and open an image editing software i use photoshop, file > new your image size for oscommerce, then file > open your image, then edit > copy, then edit > paste then edit > scale, hold down your shift key and drag..

 

thats what i do anyway.. i hope this helps ya :)

In your shopfront, in configuration-images, set constrain images to true. Also when you resize your pics, ensure that you resize all layers.
