I have noticed that just running strictly with the code that comes from the download for the Wrox website that on some occasions when I upload a photo that comes straight off my hard drive at home that sometimes the photo can lay over the update, delete and the navigation buttons for the photo album and look kind of messy. Is that something that is just happening on my PC or is it reproducible on the actually website where this application is running? Maybe the photos could be cropped before uploading or something like that. I know that there are several Jquery photocrop pluggins that allow you to photocrop a photo before it get uploaded to the server.

Yes, they can be cropped. If I am not mistaken, there's a reference my older book on ASP.NET 2 that has a chapter on (and working code for) resizing images. You could download that code and add it your site to resize the images server side.

Cheers,

Imar
