Size of photos appearing larger on blog

    There was a support question on which many people had posted saying that the photos on their blogs appeared larger than usual.
    Support “fixed” the problem for anyone who asked. Unfortunately I can’t find the post and I’m not sure if my problem is the same.
    If it is, could someone please fix it.

    I use Misty Look theme for my blog. All of the photos that I use are either medium size hosted at flickr (500 x 365) or resized in that format
    and uploaded to WordPress. Sometimes (rarely)when I look at my blog, it looks normal. The width of the two columns is 6-1/4″ and the
    width of the column with the photo is approx 4-1/2″. The photos are flickr’s medium size.

    Other times it appears too big. The width of the two columns is over 8″ and the width of the photo column is 6″.
    In other words, the photo is larger than the size I uploaded, so it looks a blurry and stretched. The watermark looks blurry too.

    I was wondering if this was my browser or computer, but in fact right now I have two different windows open to the same post
    and one looks normal and the other doesn’t.

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