Several of my hubs have very large Amazon capsules in them. I have not seen this before. Is this a new thing Amazon or HubPages has implemented or is it a technical issue? It looks really spammy.
I see these only in "edit" mode and when I save the Hub, the size returns to the usual dimensions.
I have noticed the same as Patty mentioned. I think preview give a better scale than the initial writing interface.
Mine stay large even after I save. I have been deleting the over sized capsules - they are very distracting and spammy.
Yes, I agree. They don't look nice at all. I've been keeping them that way because I feel that readers need to have SOME idea of what the book looks like, but . . . . :-(
I wish that worked for me. Unfortunately, I'm stuck with what these huge, clumsy images that don't even show the entire book cover. I really hate them!
Sorry you are having problems with a product capsule.
I just checked and a few Hubs with Amazon product capsules and did not see any issues in either the HubTool or viewing the published Hubs using Firefox in Windows.
I would suggest upgrading your browser, clearing your browser cache, and restarting your computer.
If you are still seeing formatting issues after doing so, please email us at team@hubpages.com and include the following.
Browser(s) and versions in which you are seeing the issue.
Operating system you are using.
The URL and/or title of the Hub or Hubs in question.
Yes, it's new, and I hate it. It makes me desperately frustrated and disgusted.
@Huntgoddess Please see the post above.

Yes, thanks, Matthew.
I did see this yesterday, right before I had to stop working in order to get a bus. I'm anxious to try your suggestions.
I mostly use public computers ---in universities, libraries, etc. --- so I may not have all the access to the information you request here.
I'll send what I have, though.
Thanks again.
It is a glitch. Read Matthew's post above and his advice.
OK, good to know 'cause I saw this too and thought "Holy cow' how can this product be so big! Tried to shrink to no avail.

And why can't I add any Amazon capsules? If they're not allowed, then why are they even an option? The word count doesn't seem to matter because I can have over 2,000 words but have to remove them all before the hubs will become featured again. Either way, I like the color and...

Hi everyone,I am having issue with the Amazon Ad Capsule as when I insert my Amazon Link, there is no preview for it and all I see is "No Amazon products found" . But when I check the link in a separate window, it works and loads the same product. Even after publishing the article, I...

I don't suppose I'm the only person wondering what happens if the machinations - automated or otherwise - lead to HubPages having a much REDUCED income stream from Amazon.Make no mistake - as Google Adsense income dives (which it has been doing consistently for months) - income from Amazon modules...

Yesterday I updated one of my hubs with a new poll. So why did it get the NFQ symbol, when nothing was spammy? I've rearranged the capsules, hoping it helps. Any ideas why?

Why would two hubs go from featured to not featured? I didn't make any sort of major changes to them. One has been featured since this summer and gets a decent amount of views.Thank you. It really doesn't make sense.

Hi Guys,Just thought I would share some of the changes I made which have had a positive result on my Google placings. Just to fill you in, the Feb Panda update hit me hard (40%-50% loss of traffic), and the subdomain switch improved my rankings marginally for about a day before returning to the...
