Is there a way to make the thumbnails the same size when there are landscape and portrait type pictures in the folder, i searched the forum but only found a fix for the SIG pro but it don't seem to work with the normal SIG. Can anyone help me out with this?

After some hours of trials i got the thumbnails to be the same size in SIG, for ppl with the same problem here is what i did.

This will not crop the pictures but stretch the thumbnails to meet the required size in your plugin parameters. Make sure the width and height are the same e.g(100/100)

Look for the showthumb.php file on your joomla site it should be in plugins > content > plugin_jw_sig.

1)Make a backup copy of that file.
2)Open the showthumb.php in an editor like notepad or dreamweaver.
3)On line 27 you should see $new_h = (int)($imagedata[1]*($new_w/$imagedata[0]));
4)Replace the line with $new_h = (int)($imagedata[0]*($new_w/$imagedata[0]));
5)Save your work and you are done.

In case for some design reason you dont want the plugin parameters to be the same e.g (100/100) and want the thumbnails e.g (150/100) or (100/150)

Play around with the [ 0 ] and [ 1 ] on line 27 and 31 until you get it to look the way you want
