I occasionally need to put screengrabs or other images containing text on my websites but they look much less sharp in Rapidweaver than the originals. In this example, the client has a 4-part infographic that I have screen-grabbed as 4 individual PNGs and put into a slider. [https://gate-safe.org/training](https://gate-safe.org/training) - the slider is near the top. The original PNGs are very sharp but here the text is slightly blurred / compressed looking. The images on the website are very slightly smaller than the original PNGs so sizing isn’t the issue. Any ideas what causes this? ![Screenshot 2021-02-22 at 16.13.59](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/5/6/568d56abd99b09d7486cc8f91cfb87cdf2236cf9.png) ---

@manofdogz If there is a slider on that page it’s not working for me in Safari. Are you using PNGs as resources or warehoused? I always use warehoused, so that might be part of the problem (just a guess) Even a slight reduction in size can lead to less clarity of text. Any way to resize the images yourself? Or set the slider to it shows full size of the images? ---

It’s the rescaling applied to the image by the browser. I just checked the site and also downloaded the image(s) separately. You could move to JPGs, as they are rendered differently to PNGs. However, I would suggest to resize the images to the final size with Photoshop (or similar) to avoid rescaling through the browser. ---

weird - slider’s working fine for me in safari - set quite slow as there’s a bit to be read! i’m not quite sure why the images are rendered slightly smaller - I’m using splider and new to it. Must be some padding somewhere or perhaps the container width is reducing the overall size ---

I can try that but the difference is very minimal ---

Correction. The slider IS working, but it moves forward so slow I thought it wasn’t working! People read at very different rates. Might be useful to also provide a manual way of moving forward/backwards. ---
