This is a problem due to the image not loading fast enough in order for
the bubble to calculate its size. If all your images are of roughly the
same size, then perhaps you can wrap them with a div
<div class="thumbnail-container"><img ... /></div>
and define this CSS rule to fix the size of the div
.thumbnail-container { width: 200px; height: 300px; }

This is Google Maps' doing. Exhibit doesn't control it.

It's in
http://static.simile.mit.edu/exhibit/api-2.1.0/scripts/util/views.js
Look for
Exhibit.ViewUtilities.fillBubbleWithItems
