The new cropped thumbnails are awful. Is there any way to revert?
Previously, thread thumbnails were full images - but after the kbin update, every single one is cropped and we are only seeing half the image.
This looks awful and is functionally a degradation of quality.
Is there any way to revert this change?
You're viewing a single thread.
Actually, the previous thumbnails were cropped. You saw only a part of the image in its full dimensions. Now, it's the entire image scaled to a rectangle. It is possible to restore the previous view, and I will add the option for configuration.

I suspect theres a bug as some thumbnails are still being cropped.

Edit: it also appears to crop images in the threads themselves (as seen with the screenshot posted on this reply)

The image being sent from the server appears to be cropped. Checking the code sending the thumbnail, it looks to be correct [ref].
(Disclaimer: It's been over 10 years since I looked at PHP code, so I could be wrong about what this code is doing)
