[wp-hackers] Twenty Ten theme issue?

No, it sounds like a WordPress bug. Resizing should not be done via
the image width and height tags, ever.

The width and height should always be set to the actual width and
height of the image. These are tags describing the image itself; they
are not presentational.

CSS always takes precedence over the HTML attributes for this sort of
thing. If you want it resized inline like that, then the code should
be adding inline styles to override the stylesheet, not screwing
around with the img width and height tags.
