    After 88 posts on WordPress, your software has suddenly decided to show my photos larger than 1:1, resulting in a crop of at least a quarter of the width of each photo. What is going on there.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Woah! It’s been about 10 years since I even saw that theme on any site. It’s a retured theme and the recommendation is to switch themes because themes are retired when they no longer support all wordpress.COM features. I suggest using TwentySixteen https://wordpress.com/themes/twentysixteen/

    Switching themes can be easily done, provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the site. Themes are just “skins” on WordPress.COM hosted blogs. You can quickly and easily change themes on any WordPress.COM hosted blog to another one found here http://wordpress.com/themes/ and no data will be lost or negatively affected by the change. The only time you may have to do a lot of work is if you are changing to a dramatically different theme with different features and/or if you have done any CSS editing.

    Provided you are logged in as Admin under the same username account that registered the blog go to Dashboard > Appearance > Themes, Browse themes until you find one you like and click the “activate” or the “preview” link, or type in the name of the theme you want to use when it appears.

    The theme customizer https://en.support.wordpress.com/customizer/ provides a preview function for exactly that purpose ie. so you can view what a theme will appear like prior to changing one.

    If you still have the same issue after switching then type modlook into the sidebar tags on this thread for a Staff follow-up.
