```auto ``` It seems that there are problems with the sharpness of the images in the Gallery Pro (paid) version. The Gallery standard vers in elements provides better image sharpness. Any idea? ---

Is this related to the thumbnails, or the larger images shown in the lightbox? If it’s the thumbnails, you can tweak those independently at each breakpoint, so you should be able to dial in the sharpness there. ![CleanShot 2026-02-23 at 10 .19.35@2x](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/1/d/1dcbad6b94dc699e67a1fc3c410bbcd99398ce24.jpeg) If you’re not sure, feel free to share a screenshot or a link to the page and I’ll happily take a closer look 🙂 ---

```auto Yes it is about the main images in lightbox, not the thumbnails. See the difference in the attached images. The standard version gives more correct sharpness than the pro version. ``` ![Skjermbilde 2026-02-23 kl. 15.56.47](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/5/5/550b342a9cb4e29a5a6c118843e8dac2e6c7e55e.jpeg) ![Skjermbilde 2026-02-23 kl. 15.55.22](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/7/2/72af6a1c89101b6b6b5951915f5f043c9f70d9bc.jpeg) ---

> [@alexander28](#): > > The images have become a little sharper What do you have the Image Size setting set to? If you choose “Original” it will serve the un-modified original file added to Elements. ![CleanShot 2026-02-24 at 09.41.59@2x](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/8/a/8a5fe11e99e6b0678d2d8ab1c4922e5bb27f893a.png) ---

Thank you for taking the time to answer! Did you migrate a classic website over to multithemes / elements or start fresh? Your website is looking good by the way! ---

Yes, started from scratch in Elements. The theme from Multithemes is great and also easy to work with. Recommended. 😉
