apod is a big offender in this regard), then this little alteration to your journal's code will make you happy. Your nice columns will never stretch and distort again.
Go here. You should see four tabs: ‘Basics’, ‘Look and Feel’, ‘Custom Options’, and ‘Advanced’. Click on ‘Custom Options’.
Now you should see, just below the tabs, a whole row of sections to chose from. Choose ‘Custom CSS’.
Now you should see a series of options, with ‘Custom Style Sheet’ at the bottom, and a large text input area next to it.
Into this text area, enter
Now, whenever an image is too big to fit in the column, it will be contained within the appropriate area, and have scrollbars to let you see it. If no large image (or non-breakable text) appears, you won't see any difference.
You're welcome.
(EDIT: this is dependent on what style you're using, of course. Mine uses class="entryText". Others might use class="entry", or class="entry_text", or something even more exotic. Look at the source code of your friends page (^U in firefox), and see what class is being used in your style.)
