  Troubleshooting images tips here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/troubleshooting-images/

  Prior to uploading any image into your blog, regardless if it’s a header image, a featured image, an image in a post or page, in a Post format (Gallery or Image), an image for sidebar display in an image widget or a text widget, you can optimize and re-size it in either a desktop image editing software or online image editing software to fit the space you intend to use it in. By undertaking proper image preparation first you will get the best image quality, won’t be wasting your media storage space, and won’t be wasting your time troubleshooting.

  Okay, thanks timethief, I will look into optimizing my pictures.

  Although, I should say it’s strange that this is happening now as I’ve never faced this problem before when uploading similar-sized pictures in wordpress galleries, and galleries in my previous blog entries that had no issues in the past, now have this same problem. Possibly it has something to do with my current location and connection while traveling. Any thoughts?

  My galleries just went bonkers today as well. Instead of small pictures that can be clicked and made bigger they are all scrunched together with some big and some not. When did this change, why wasn’t I notified, and when is WordPress going to get this fixed?

  Thanks,
  Greg
