Hi,

what size should have the photos that I upload from a K2 Item -> Image
in order to appear with good quality in the main slideshow (using Toreda template)?

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
dimkou

I would recommend above 1200 x 800 pixels.
You can also change the XL image size in K2's settings (before uploading) to use even larger images.

Hi Krikor,

I set "2000" in K2 Parameters->Images->Item XLarge image width (in px).
Also I uploaded a new photo with these dimensions: 2000 x 1333 px
and then I choosed it from the K2 item as an Image for the Slideshow, but it still appears with bad quality
(as you can see on the image that I attached). http://imgur.com/pe9uOrT

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
dimkou

2000 is quite large.
It might slow your site down if you use many. Keep in mind that the largest screens (apart from 4K and 27inch iMacs) are only 1920px in width.

If the image is still blurry, double check the module's options and make sure that the XL image is indeed being used.

The problem is solved! I should change also the parameters in Module Manager (and not only K2 Parameters).
I choosed XL from Module Manager and the images in slideshow have again perfect quality.

Thanks a lot!!!

Best regards,
dimkou
