I am running jQuery Cycle for an image gallery. View the link: Here
My problem is that the images are getting squished when viewed in firefox. The problem disappears
You can use a solution similar to making youtube videos responsive. You need to know the ratio of your width to height, and add that as padding-bottom to the cycling div. For my 1024X680 photos, I used 680/1024 = 66.4%
In your case, I believe
#slideshow{
padding-bottom:66.4%;
}
will show the image unshrunk. I have no idea what the actual height and width values you are working with, so substitute your own. I had to use this solution when the $(window).load solution proved maddeningly ineffective -- so now I use both.
This is better than setting the dimensions of the image, because it's slides into a fluid, responsive enviroment.
