In the guidelines for the k-1 it says you and your partner both need pictures. They are a lot different from normal American passport pictures right? Mine came out a lot smaller. Is immigrations strict about this?

You should get the pictures sized correctly. Its explicitly in the instructions of many of the forms and countless threads on it.

You both need to use US sized passport pictures throughout the entire process.

"The size of the photo must be 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 mm) The photo must be sized in such a manner that the head shot is between 1 inch and 1 3/8 inches (between 25-35 mm) from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head."

Just letting you know for the I-129f packet we sent in my fiancé had the wrong size photo (he had send me the UK size which is smaller) and we did not receive and RFE and we were approved.

For the steps after you should use the U.S. size but if it wasn't a problem with the I-129f for us I don't see how it could be a problem for anyone else?

So..you havent submitted anything.

Clearly discovered an explicit specification in the prerequisites.

Have opportunity to reconcile. Wouldn't you choose to do so?

Just letting you know for the I-129f packet we sent in my fiancé had the wrong size photo (he had send me the UK size which is smaller) and we did not receive and RFE and we were approved.

For the steps after you should use the U.S. size but if it wasn't a problem with the I-129f for us I don't see how it could be a problem for anyone else?

Not sure thats a sound conclusion to make. No idea OPs photos maybe completely size wrong or far too small. Maybe you got a pass. Theres records of others getting RFEs on VJ and obviously theres people NOT on VJ as well.
