Well, I just re-generated all the images with no resolution specified. It did
run full-screen, but it did not crop the images at all. When I view them in
the VEC I have to scroll to even see the little parts like the 1x3 arch.
This has happened on two machines at home. I tried to get this working on my
NT machine at work but LDAO runs funny - some blue line vibrates under the
menu bar the entire time, it locks up and takes up 100% CPU when I try to
generate the VEC, etc.
I've never had a problem with LDAO before, and I've thrown it on a dozen or
more machines. Now it either won't work at all or makes images I can't use
(non-cropped). :/

Yeah, I could do that if all I needed was the knowledge, but I'll be hosting
the pics either way, so I might as well generate them.

I hope I can make my machines do it then. I thought maybe the compression
thing was messing it up, but the last batch I just ran had that turned off and
they're still huge with white space.
Maybe Leo's program will help me out...
