Hello all flash people!!

I’m having a problem with loading jpegs dynamically using the \<img\> tag in a html text field. Basically, the jpegs are distorting, stretching (mainly vertically), even if I specify height and width…

Has anyone ever come across a similar thing?

Did you ever find a solution?

I hugely appreciate any comment:) 🙂 🙂

cheers!!!
