Over-compressed blurry pics?

Are you changing the picture size on the site? In other words, putting a 200 x 350 (just a size picked at random) picture up and using “width” and “height” parameters in your img tag to force the pictures to a different size without resampling the pictures for best appearance (like Photoshop or GIMP, or other graphics program).

No. I am using image parameters but it’s just so it can appear in the HTML. The image really is 150w x 100h.

can u post links for us to check it out?
are u using a mobile internetconnection?

Sure. Go to https://www.dreamscapela.com and look at the three pics in the Past Events Portfolio near the bottom of the page. And no, I’m not using mobile.

It is because when you are sending the image to the editor, you are sending the thumbnail. On your page, the blurry version is:

paul.thumbnail.jpg

but that links to a clear image

paul.jpg

Send the original to the editor and it should be fixed.

OK, I got it. I simply went to code view in the editor and deleted the word ‘thumbnail.’ and problem solved.

But here’s my question. I originally dragged this image from the Upload/Browse All area to the Visual editor and that’s when it brought in the thumbnail instead of the original. How can I avoid this because it’s my client and not me who’s going to do this and he’s not going to want to drag something in and then delete some type in the code editor. He probably will never want to use the code editor.

You don’t drag and drop the image. You use the menu, and choose to send the original image rather than the thumbnail.

Try single left clicking the image to get the menu to show.

Thanks. I think I got it now. But out of curiosity, do I link to the File, Page or None?

“do I link to the File, Page or None?“

That all depends on what you want from the image. If it’s not meant to be linked, then you want ‘none.’ If you want to link to the image or a page that can display and describe it, then choose file or page, respectively.
