not scaling images

The plugin does not actually scale the images in the menu and displays them only in full size.

Still works with 5.3

3 versions on and it still works!

Unlike another plugin with a similar name, this plugin still works just fine with my WordPress sites and themes. A real shame that it has been abandoned, and I’d love to see an ‘updated’ version by so
