How do I keep the banner images from resizing automatically?

I uploaded some banners to a client's site https://www.plustoofashion.com. Take a look at the product category pages. My banners are smallr than they should be. They were resized to 472px × 79px and I want to keep them at the original size of 538px x 90px. How can I prevent this resize? It happened automatically when I uploaded them through the banner interface.

I'd appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks! :smile:

Re: How do I keep the banner images from resizing automatically?

First of all, very nice job styling your site. Unfortunately, you'll lose it all when you upgrade to the next Zencart version because you've edited the 'Classic' template. Take the time now to create your CUSTOM template and your override folders. You'll thank me later.

I'm not exactly sure where or how you uploaded those images, but they aren't what Zencart callls 'banners', they're category images. If you added them when you created the category they should be displaying at the original size. Since the image name ends in 472X79.jpg, I'm wondering if you uploaded the wrong image?

Thanks for the advice. I uploaded the images through the admin and the renamed themselves as well.

I still have no idea how to resize the images. I'll keep at it unless someone else adds to this post. :)

Any idea how I can add custom HTML to the top of the page? :) That approach should suffice.

Re: How do I keep the banner images from resizing automatically?

That's awesome!! Kind of an odd way to design an admin, but it works! Thanks for your help! :yes:

I adjusted the height, which adjusted both height and width. I don't quite understand that, but the issue is resolved! Thanks!
