 * When I add an image the picture stretches to fit the screen. The only way I can
   get the proper dimensions is to delete the Height and Width in the Text area 
   of the Content box.
 * Here is my website: [http://www.hardware-360.com/](http://www.hardware-360.com/)
 * Here is a link to what the images do when I don’t manually size them in the Text
   area: [http://www.hardware-360.com/ek-working-on-water-block-for-asus-r9-280x-dc-graphics-card/](http://www.hardware-360.com/ek-working-on-water-block-for-asus-r9-280x-dc-graphics-card/)
 * As you can see the image is stretched

 * Your theme appears to be built on a ‘tidythemes’ starter theme. There may be 
   some help on the tidythemes forums if the starter theme has anything unusual 
   about how it handles images.
 * What are your media sizes set to?
    Go to settings -> media
 * your image sizes for thumbnail, medium and large should be shown.
 * The image in your example page is 1095px × 581px and it is being scaled down 
   in the browser to fit the size available.
 * When you add the image, after you click **add media** and select your image, 
   what do you select as the setting for **size** in the panel to the right of that
   screen under attachment display settings?

 * Yes, your custom theme is built off of:
