The page script for photos displayed on a 'Story' scrunches your uploaded photo to a unique 360x600 size: this aspect ratio does not exist anywhere else in the known universe!! If you are thinking of taking photos for a story, set your camera to 16:9 The
distortion will then be reduced when your picture appears on the web.

Other options are to crop your photo using a photo editor to the 1.66666:1 ratio before uploading: this gives the best results. Another option is to prepare a blank new picture in 'paint' 360x600 and insert and centre your 4:3 image.
