Is the blurriness of the high-quality images in Webflow due to their smaller size in the image settings?
The blurriness of high-quality images in Webflow is not directly related to their size in the image settings. There are a few factors that can contribute to image blurriness in Webflow:
File format: It is important to use the correct file format for your images. For photographs and high-quality images, it is recommended to use JPEG format. PNG format is better suited for images that require transparency or have a limited color palette.
Image resolution: It is crucial to upload images with the appropriate resolution to ensure clarity. Webflow automatically optimizes images for different devices and screen sizes, but if the image resolution is too low, it may appear blurry or pixelated.
Compression settings: When exporting or saving images, it is important to balance image quality with file size. Higher compression levels can lead to a decrease in image quality. Webflow provides the option to adjust image compression settings during export or upload, allowing you to optimize image quality for your specific needs.
Scaling images: When images are scaled up or down using CSS, it can result in blurriness. It is recommended to upload images at the desired dimensions to avoid scaling issues. Webflow provides options to resize images directly within the designer, which helps maintain image clarity.
Retina displays: Blurriness can be more noticeable on high-resolution screens like Retina displays. To ensure sharpness on these screens, it is recommended to use images with double the pixel density (2x) or even triple the pixel density (3x). Webflow allows you to specify different images for different screen densities using the srcset attribute.
In summary, while smaller image sizes in the image settings may contribute to blurriness, it is important to consider other factors such as file format, image resolution, compression settings, scaling, and support for high-resolution screens like Retina displays to ensure optimal image quality in Webflow.
