      How do I display a larger image on the page and on the area listing?

      I have an area 'People'. I have added a photo of the person as the page icon for each page.
      I used a link to a XFMG Entry.
      This displays as a very small icon on the area and in the page header. (next to title)

      You can tweak icon sizes globally using Style Properties, under the group Wiki: Icons > Dimensions.

      The icon next to the title uses the Extra-large size.
      If you're not tiling the area list, the area list uses the Normal size.

      If you ARE tiling the area list (probably recommended if you are only doing this in one area), then the size is controlled by the Style Properties under the group Wiki: Tiles.

      On Tile view I need to set a considerable difference between tile width and icon size. Currently I have used:
      tile width: 280px
      icon size: 180px
      This creates a lot of unwanted whitespace around the icon. The wide whitespace with dark border also makes it look like an Obituary when it comes to People. But if I reduce the difference, then the image will be cropped weirdly. This seems to be a bug, but I'm not sure.

      I would like smaller tiles than this, but keep the icon at 180px.

      Also see:

      Also: is there a way to display the icon large on the article page?

      This "cropping" behavior is not supposed to happen. The tile is basically intended to be set to the same size as the image, but it looks like the text is covering it with a white background. The text is supposed to have a semi-transparent background so you can still see the bottom of the image. From my own tests, it looks like XenForo is not processing the style property used and instead defaulting the value to white. This will need some research.
