I've used the CSS flex box layout which appears as shown below:
If the screen gets smaller it turns into this:
The problem is that the images are not resized keeping the aspect ration from the original image.
Is it possible to use pure CSS and the flex box layout to let the images be resized if the screen gets smaller?
Here is my html:
<div class="content">
<div class="row">
<div class="cell">
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/OUla6mK.jpg"/>
</div>
<div class="cell">
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/M16WzMd.jpg"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
my CSS:
.content {
background-color: yellow;
}
.row {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -moz-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: -webkit-flex;
display: flex;
-webkit-box-orient: horizontal;
-moz-box-orient: horizontal;
box-orient: horizontal;
flex-direction: row;
-webkit-box-pack: center;
-moz-box-pack: center;
box-pack: center;
justify-content: center;
-webkit-box-align: center;
-moz-box-align: center;
box-align: center;
align-items: center;
background-color: red;
}
.cell {
-webkit-box-flex: 1;
-moz-box-flex: 1;
box-flex: 1;
-webkit-flex: 1 1 auto;
flex: 1 1 auto;
padding: 10px;
margin: 10px;
background-color: green;
border: 1px solid red;
text-align: center;
}

You can do it easily with grid:
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: auto auto;
justify-content: space-between;

You might want to try the very new and simple CSS3 feature:
img {
object-fit: contain;
}
It preserves the picture ratio (as when you use the background-picture trick), and in my case worked nicely for the same issue.
Be careful though, it is not supported by IE (see support details here).
If you wish to specify a specific aspect ratio, you can combine it with the aspect-ratio
property
img {
object-fit: contain;
aspect-ratio:2/1;
}

Set a width of 50% or a specific number for your cell div. And for the img tag, set the width to 100%. This way, the width will have to be 100% all the time and height will change accordingly keeping the aspect ratio the same.

That's how I would handle different images (sizes and proportions) in a flexible grid.
.images {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
margin: -20px;
}
.imagewrapper {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
width: calc(50% - 20px);
height: 300px;
margin: 10px;
}
.image {
display: block;
object-fit: cover;
width: 100%;
height: 100%; /* set to 'auto' in IE11 to avoid distortions */
}
<div class="images">
<div class="imagewrapper">
<img class="image" src="https://via.placeholder.com/800x600" />
</div>
<div class="imagewrapper">
<img class="image" src="https://via.placeholder.com/1024x768" />
</div>
<div class="imagewrapper">
<img class="image" src="https://via.placeholder.com/1000x800" />
</div>
<div class="imagewrapper">
<img class="image" src="https://via.placeholder.com/500x800" />
</div>
<div class="imagewrapper">
<img class="image" src="https://via.placeholder.com/800x600" />
</div>
<div class="imagewrapper">
<img class="image" src="https://via.placeholder.com/1024x768" />
</div>
</div>

<div class="container">
<div class="box">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/1600/1200/" alt="">
</div>
</div>
.container {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
justify-content: center;
align-items: stretch;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
border-radius: 4px;
background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 96%);
}
.box {
border-radius: 4px;
display: flex;
}
.box img {
width: 100%;
object-fit: contain;
border-radius: 4px;
}

I came here looking for an answer to my distorted images. Not totally sure about what the op is looking for above, but I found that adding in align-items: center
would solve it for me. Reading the docs, it makes sense to override this if you are flexing images directly, since align-items: stretch
is the default. Another solution is to wrap your images with a div first.
.myFlexedImage {
display: flex;
flex-flow: row nowrap;
align-items: center;
}

img {max-width:100%;}
is one way of doing this. Just add it to your CSS code.

In the second image it looks like you want the image to fill the box, but the example you created DOES keep the aspect ratio (the pets look normal, not slim or fat).
I have no clue if you photoshopped those images as example or the second one is "how it should be" as well (you said IS, while the first example you said "should")
Anyway, I have to assume:
If "the images are not resized keeping the aspect ration" and you show me an image which DOES keep the aspect ratio of the pixels, I have to assume you are trying to accomplish the aspect ratio of the "cropping" area (the inner of the green) WILE keeping the aspect ratio of the pixels. I.e. you want to fill the cell with the image, by enlarging and cropping the image.
If that's your problem, the code you provided does NOT reflect "your problem", but your starting example.
Given the previous two assumptions, what you need can't be accomplished with actual images if the height of the box is dynamic, but with background images. Either by using "background-size: contain" or these techniques (smart paddings in percents that limit the cropping or max sizes anywhere you want): http://fofwebdesign.co.uk/template/_testing/scale-img/scale-img.htm
The only way this is possible with images is if we FORGET about your second iimage, and the cells have a fixed height, and FORTUNATELY, judging by your sample images, the height stays the same!
So if your container's height doesn't change, and you want to keep your images square, you just have to set the max-height of the images to that known value (minus paddings or borders, depending on the box-sizing property of the cells)
Like this:
<div class="content">
<div class="row">
<div class="cell">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/output/people-q-c-320-320-2.jpg"/>
</div>
<div class="cell">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/output/people-q-c-320-320-7.jpg"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
And the CSS:
.content {
background-color: green;
}
.row {
display: -webkit-box;
display: -moz-box;
display: -ms-flexbox;
display: -webkit-flex;
display: flex;
-webkit-box-orient: horizontal;
-moz-box-orient: horizontal;
box-orient: horizontal;
flex-direction: row;
-webkit-box-pack: center;
-moz-box-pack: center;
box-pack: center;
justify-content: center;
-webkit-box-align: center;
-moz-box-align: center;
box-align: center;
align-items: center;
}
.cell {
-webkit-box-flex: 1;
-moz-box-flex: 1;
box-flex: 1;
-webkit-flex: 1 1 auto;
flex: 1 1 auto;
padding: 10px;
border: solid 10px red;
text-align: center;
height: 300px;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
box-sizing: content-box;
}
img {
margin: auto;
width: 100%;
max-width: 300px;
max-height:100%
}
Your code is invalid (opening tags are instead of closing ones, so they output NESTED cells, not siblings, he used a SCREENSHOT of your images inside the faulty code, and the flex box is not holding the cells but both examples in a column (you setup "row" but the corrupt code nesting one cell inside the other resulted in a flex inside a flex, finally working as COLUMNS. I have no idea what you wanted to accomplish, and how you came up with that code, but I'm guessing what you want is this.
I added display: flex to the cells too, so the image gets centered (I think display: table
could have been used here as well with all this markup)

I am using jquery or vw to keep the ratio
jquery
function setSize() {
var $h = $('.cell').width();
$('.your-img-class').height($h);
}
$(setSize);
$( window ).resize(setSize);
vw
.cell{
width:30vw;
height:30vw;
}
.cell img{
width:100%;
height:100%;
}

I suggest looking into background-size
options to adjust the image size.
Instead of having the image in the page if you have it set as a background image you can set:
background-size: contain
or
background-size: cover
These options take into account both the height and width when scaling the image. This will work in IE9 and all other recent browsers.
