uploading a square image is not a problem. but when i upload a rectangular image. image gets distorted. On Wed, Jul 29, 2009 at 11:24 AM, Sandip R.

solved “#” used in style needs to be removed. #Files attached to channels has\_attached\_file :logo, :styles =\> { :small\_thumb =\> [“64x44”, :jpg], :large\_thumb =\> [“81x81”, :jpg]}, :storage =\> :s3, :path =\> “:attachment/:id/:style.:extension”, ---

First check you’re using the latest version of Paperclip and then file a bug with Paperclip if it persists. Andrew T.

To resize while maintaining aspect ratio, use “64x64\>” - This will result in either the width or the height = 64 and the other side will be relatively smaller. To resize with crop, use “64x64#” - This will result in both width and height = 64 and the longer of the two will be cropped evenly on either side. You should usually use one of these unless you are very sure of the aspect ratio of the images being uploaded. Andrew T.
