Sure, I can help you with making a responsive image in Webflow that resizes when the resolution changes. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Add an Image element: First, add an Image element to your Webflow project by dragging and dropping it onto your canvas. You can find it in the Elements panel on the left sidebar.

  2. Upload your image: Click on the Image element to select it, and then click on the image placeholder to upload the image you want to use. You can either upload an image from your computer or choose one from your Webflow assets.

  3. Set the image width: By default, the Image element will have a fixed width. To make it responsive, you need to set a maximum width for the image. Select the Image element, and in the Style panel on the right sidebar, go to the Width setting. Set the width to 100% to make it responsive.

  4. Set a maximum width: To control the maximum size of the image, you can set a maximum width for the Image element. In the Style panel, go to the Max Width setting and enter a value. This value will determine how large the image can scale up to on larger screens.

  5. Adjust the height: By default, the Image element will maintain the original aspect ratio of the image. This means that the height will automatically adjust based on the width to keep the image from stretching. However, if you want to control the height as well, you can set a specific height in the Style panel.

  6. Preview and test: Once you have made these changes, you can preview your website in different resolutions to see how the image resizes. You can use the Webflow Designer's responsive breakpoints or the built-in device preview to test different screen sizes.

By following these steps, you can create a responsive image in Webflow that will resize when the resolution changes. This will ensure that your image looks great on different devices and screen sizes.
