Question: Pixelated Hero Image on People page #61

Closed bwaltz closed 1 year ago

bwaltz commented 1 year ago

The image we're using is huge: https://master-7rqtwti-ouiqvb5juucvu.us-4.platformsh.site/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/container-19.jpg

However, it is quite pixelated on the people page: https://master-7rqtwti-ouiqvb5juucvu.us-4.platformsh.site/people/

Do you know why?

@bwaltz I'm gonna boost the resolution used for heros sitewide. This is 100% a result of a too finely cropped image sizing in functions.php. Although we are aiming for lightning fast load times, the 1280px width I have set here is entirely too small. Expect a commit shortly amending this, and a few other sizes. We'll probably boost it to 2400px wide.

@bwaltz Update: I've pushed a commit here that should do the trick. We may need to reupload or toggle the image in the CMS after running your next composer.

@gregoryspragginsjr It's still pixelated even after a re-upload of that image.

I wonder if the template's not using the correct size?

@bwaltz that could indeed be it. Let me take a look then.

@bwaltz Update: Try now. I forgot that we updated these overlay-hero to support full video. That video component was what needed to be updated to support larger thumbnail sizes.
