I don't think you will be able to auto size to 100 x 100 unless the original image is a square. I mean if the original is 200 x 600 and you set it to be 100 x 100 - I think it will always be distorted.

What I did for a client was set the width in oscommerce to be 100 and left the height adjustment alone. This way the images were not distorded (the aspect ratio) stayed the same. But the width was constant for all thumbnails

To do this I just set up the 'configuration' / 'images' options with a constant width but left the height setting at 0

Perhaps they will be happy with just a constant width (and no distortion ?
