    I have a responsive website and have noticed a minor issue. Google pagespeed is saying that the thumbnails are being resized in css or html and that they should be scaled images to make the page load faster on mobile devices. (Website URL: https://appducate.com )

    It is possible to give the option to make the thumbnails be scaled? Thank you for the awesome plugin by the way, I’ve been using it for months and love it.

    Hi AppDucate,

    FPW doesn’t handle image resizing. FPW already allows you to pick what image size you’d like to display. Therefore, it would be up to your WordPress settings, a specific thumbnail size declaration in your theme’s functions.php or your theme’s styles.css file to work with sizes that are already created.

    That being said, just adding another image size to “appease” page speed rankings isn’t always the best solution either. I often use a thumbnail size that is relatively small for a number of different placements, allowing the browser to rescale it a small amount to fit the situation. This is because, minor rescaling is less of a performance hit than having to actually download two different image assets depending on the placement.

    Hopefully that all makes sense. Thanks for using the plugin!
