           Summary: Use square photos for contacts
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: floeschie at gmx.net
                CC: tokoe at kde.org


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

I'm syncing my contacts with Memotoo and from Memotoo to Google, as the Akonadi
Google Sync plugin doesn't work well. Google and Memotoo use square contact
photos, and so does my Android smartphone. However, KAdressbook uses upright
photos (portrait style), so everytime I add a photo in KAdressbook it gets
squeezed in Google/Android. As most of devices and services use square photos
(even KAddressbook contact list), please use square photos in KAdressbook, too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add a photo in kontact (kaddressbook)
2. sync to Memotoo
3. sync from Memotoo to Google

Actual Results:  
Photo gets squeezed in Google

Expected Results:  
Kontact/KAddressbook should crop fotos to square size

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.32-22-generic
Compiler: cc
