No solution ?
Use CSS. Add width and height parameters for img for the class.
Do you mean trying to fit a rectangular image in a square ? Won't that distort it ?
Probably. What are you looking for? Can this search [1] help or [2]?

Of course he doesn't want to distort the image!
The fact this sort of thing is not really easy to do is one of the BIGGEST stumbling blocks to average users and especially designers using Drupal. This should be one of the most basic and simplest things to implement and use in the program.
Apparently I have 3 solutions (with typical Drupal results):
- use CCK+imagecache+imagefield. But then I can't use acidfree anymore (and I must migrate all photos and albums, img_assist and other stuff won't work anymore - out of question). - use image_exact. This looks like the perfect solution, except that it doesn't work (it can't resize existing images, doesn't work with mass import and fails as soon as you change your image settings) - wait for mmedia (Media Manager) to become ready, because from the description it's everything I need.
I don't doubt there are other solutions (it's Drupal), including rolling my own code, but I didn't find anything easy to deploy, and working. Yet.
