This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Types 3.3 has introduced the new repeating image field UI, but there is a client ask for reversing back to former repeating image field, since the image URL input box is too short, this client needs full-width image URL input box, so he can change the image URL easily,
Solution:
This issue has been forward to our developers as a feature request, but there isn't any ETA for it.

Submitted a suggestion but the confirmation said not all are read, so I'm posting here too...
I have a multisite set up. All three domains are essentially the same sites but translated into English (dewandelaar.org), Dutch (dewandelaar.nl) and German (derwanderer.de). To save space in images on the server, I only upload images to .ORG. When creating a repeating image field in .NL and .DE I copy the URL from the .ORG site and change the domain-name part as appropriate. For example;

The new implementation only has a short URL field edit box, the former implementation extended full width. The new, short, editing field makes it difficult to edit the url. I notice that using keyboard shift-left-arrow selects toward the right, shift-right-arrow selects toward the left. Both are opposite direction to what is expected.
I use 16:9 size images. The area for displaying the image is now a square, however my images are tiling over each other in the .ORG site. The image should be scaled to fit the confines of the square boundary, preferably not being cropped - as it was in the previous implementation.
On my .NL and .DE websites (admin), the tiling displays the full-size image, which extends outside the repeating field area and covers the custom fields I have below it making them (almost) unusable. I guess the issue is because I am using images that exist outside the media library - again, to save limited space on the server.
The front-end result can be seen on the following urls. The front-end appears fine, but I'd prefer the back end to revert to the original implementation. The 3.3 implementation seems purely cosmetic and with limited testing.
