Images in blog or wiki articles, microblog posts, or widgets are slightly pixelated or blurry.
Images with file sizes above 250kb are presented at thumbnail size rather than scaled from the full-size image. This is intended behavior. The Igloo platform serves images scaled to their display size to reduce page load times, particularly on mobile devices. This compression can reduce image quality in some cases.
Cause: Image compression causes blurriness
Resolve by changing file type.
If your image is in JPG file type, replace it with a PNG version. PNG images handle compression more cleanly.
Resolve by displaying full-quality image
When image compression causes blurriness, you can bypass this feature to display a full-quality image rather than the compressed version. Follow these steps:
- Navigate to the original post or article.
- Select the Options or
Actions
and then Edit.
- Select
More Misc and
Code View to change the image directly in the code editor.
- Locate the image's source code and remove the two instances of
width=####in the source code: - (Optional) Select Don't notify followers of this edit to prevent notifying users with a subscription of changes.
- Select Save Changes.
