    My website is http://www.alteregoraleigh.com

    The strangest thing started happening in January: all of a sudden the images showing on my blog roll on the front page are pixelated. Never happened before. The same images are not pixelated on the slider or when you click on the post. I tried deactivating plugins to no avail. Has anyone ever encountered this? I see no similar problems in my online searches. Ideas for troubleshooting?

    TIA!

    Hi shawnallyn

    Yes I had this issue a long while back – the solution was to prevent image compression (however I still compress my images via Photoshop so that file sizes do not become too cumbersome to page load speeds – but at least the images don’t look like crap.)

    In my child theme’s functions:
    * ADD FILTER TO PREVENT IMAGE COMPRESSION
    */
    add_filter( ‘jpeg_quality’, ‘jpeg_full_quality’ );
    function jpeg_full_quality( $quality ) { return 100; }

    You’re welcome. It works, you can see it working on my site (bcr8tive.com)
    (but I do compress with PS otherwise the pages would be hogs & that’s an awful user experience)
