I'm not familiar with how to contribute to GNOME / Twitux, but I found how to fix it.
In the source code, in src/twitux-app.c, change line 1473 from: pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file (file, &error); to: pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_size (file, 48, 48, &error); That way, the picture is left untouched in the cache folder ($HOME/.gnome2/twitux/avatar) but is scaled to fit the 48x48px size when loaded, keeping the original aspect ratio. If I find time to do so, I'll try to submit a patch to the projet. -- Twitux deals badly with missized images https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339257 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
