There could be a few reasons why images may appear smaller than the div width when publishing to the staging site in Webflow. Here are some possible causes and solutions:

Incorrect image size: Ensure that the original image file has the appropriate dimensions and resolution for the intended display size. If the image is too small, it may appear stretched or pixelated when scaled up to fit the div width. Resize or replace the image with a higher resolution version if necessary.
CSS styles: Check if there are any CSS styles applied to the image or its parent div that could be causing the sizing issue. Look for properties like max-width, width, height, object-fit, or overflow that may affect the image size. Adjust or remove these styles as needed to achieve the desired display.
Container width: Verify that the div containing the image has the correct width set. If the container is narrower than the image, the image may appear smaller. Adjust the width of the div to match the desired display size.
Responsive settings: If your website is responsive, ensure that the image and its container have appropriate responsive settings applied. Check if there are any media queries or breakpoints that may be affecting the image size. Adjust the responsive settings to ensure that the image scales correctly across different screen sizes.
Webflow interactions: If you have any Webflow interactions applied to the image or its parent div, they may be causing the sizing issue. Review the interactions and their settings to ensure they are not affecting the image size in a way that is unintended.

In conclusion, the incorrect image size, CSS styles, container width, responsive settings, or Webflow interactions can cause images to appear smaller than the div width on the staging site in Webflow. By addressing these potential issues, you should be able to resolve the problem and achieve the desired image display.
