Why do my contact pictures stay thumbnail size?

contact picture stays thumbnail size

I have an Iphone 5s. I added a contact picture, but when this person calls the picture comes up as a thumbnail size. All other contact pictures are full screen.

contact picture stays thumbnail size

If it's an iCloud contact or one you put in, it shows full screen. If it's another, like Gmail that's synced in, it shows thumbnail. Usually if I put my own photo in, it shows full screen. Did you put it in, or did it sync in with Gmail or come from the Web?

Re: contact picture stays thumbnail size

I am in the process of migrating over to iCloud based service and I will keep my gmail in sync it will be nicer to have clearer photos of my contacts. It takes a long time to migrate your email and get people to start using it.
