Feed View resizes images - bad for comics

problem
#1

I think this is a bug. It seems unintentional based on your CSS code:

.NB-feed-story .NB-feed-story-content img {
height: auto !important;
max-width: 100% !important;
width: auto;
}

I am using Firefox 23 with Firebug. Using Firebug, I can turn off the max-width attribute, and when I do the image displays at full size. When on the image is at 90-95%. These images are not larger than the window, there is no need to resize them.

This is for the Feed View. If I switch to Story View the image is full-size.

I am experiencing this with multiple different webcomics. For example, xkcd.com

I believe if you simply remove the max-width from your CSS, it will fix the problem.

This is still an issue which I find annoying.

What’s the newsblur.com site url for the site when you click on it?

http://newsblur.com/site/169/xkcd.com

Also,

probably others, do you need them all?

Hmm, they both look good to me. No weird resizing is going on.

I have just double-checked them on Firefox and Chrome.

The latest xkcd comic is not resized, because it is a smaller single-panel comic, however if you look at the comic from Jan 26th -
http://xkcd.com/1322/
It is resized for me.

Diesel sweeties is generally a wider format, and the resizing is more obvious.

I am viewing on a 1920x1200 screen. Newsblur appears to expect a maximum window width of about half that. All articles, text and pictures will not expand to fill the full window. Forcing a max-width is frustrating. If I want a smaller window I can resize it.
