Interesting! I have been setting my images as width="98%" so that
they will display more or less full screen in the Fire HD and
especially the 8.9 inch tablet. A traditional (American) photo is
scaled something like 8x10, while the Fire tablets (I'm not
certain about the iPads) are comparatively skinny, so that
calling for 95 percent of the height would be asking for the
image to be squeezed. What happens in such a case? Is it cropped
right and left, or is the picture elongated like an El Greco?

I do much the same with my publisher logo. I used to specify
25x25 pixels, but now I go width="12%".
