in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Do you have autofit enabled?

no. turning it on or off doesn't seem to be making a difference...:(

Looks like you might be using the Gridify option 
https://creativepro.com/tip-week-gridify-magic/

When you use Gridify when placing images of different widths it will use the image with the largest frame as the option for the width of all the boxes. 

I think that's what's happening here.

Hard to know.
