Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'width'.

Hi, I've got another problem. When I try to set a custom image by typing in a url, the image doesn't completely scale to the size of the thumbnails width. Instead the image is "squished" to the left side with the background color showing through on the right. When I look at the Error Console I get this error:
Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'width'. Declaration dropped.
and
Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'height'. Declaration dropped.

Could you post a picture?

Please make all logos transparent. Then everybody can choose their own colors.

Submitted by EricaS on Mon, 09/29/2008 - 14:33No, it shouldn't be smaller because I didn't use a custom image I just typed in the url for the image that I wanted to use. This was the website's homepage so it should automatically scale.

Submitted by EricaS on Mon, 09/29/2008 - 17:10300X225. But I understand what you are saying now. I'll just create custom images of the websites because I know that works. It's just that typing the direct url of the website works for some thumbnails and for others I get that "squished" image. I guess its a hit or miss. For the misses I'll just create the image myself. Thanks.

one question though, why not use site logos instead of site thumbnails?
Re: Warning: Error in parsing value for property 'width'.
Submitted by EricaS on Mon, 09/29/2008 - 22:17Well, I don't want to have to create logos for every site that I link to. I have too many of them. I also don't want to create custom images for them all either. You see, most of my thumbnails lead to logins and if I left it in the default view then I'll get confused on which site was which since all login boxes look alike. That's why I wanted the to be able to get an image of the site just by typing in the url. That way I don't have to waste time creating images for them all.

These are Fast Dial generated Thumbnails of two of your websites.
Don't look too bad, do they ?
