Out of the box Coppermine doesn't support thumb cropping. You'll need to apply mods

The 'modpack' adds that feature to Coppermine

But how do I fix the thumbnails from looking all grainy?? Is there something in the config that I need to change?

maybe you're using GD(1) as image libraray... try setting it to GD2
config -> Files and thumbnails advanced settings -> Method for resizing images

I know I sound like a pain in the ass to Stramm now, but I'm having the same problem as posted in the first post, and I tried the "advices" and whatnot, but I still couldn't fix it. So, more specifically, what should I do/press/click in order for my whole gallery's thumbnails to look like I want them to?

Thanks.

@kimluv345: you gallery is currently offline, so we can't take a look. Set it back online.

@cosmo_grl: if you must try to hijack someone else's thread, you could at least read the thread you're replying to and do as supporters suggested there.

Instead of posting a snapy reply you should do as I suggested to the other person asking for help - it should give you an impression what supporters need in order to be able to help you.
