Hello,

I realize for some time that when I upload a picture image in tab the "Image", this one is highly degraded, it does not at all correspond to the quality of the image I uploaded, I 'looked everywhere in the configurations, the width of my image is equal to the parameters that I mentioned in the K2 Control over quality is set to 100.

Do you have a solution for me to upload an image with absolutely no loss of quality?

Thank you in advance for your help and reply.

ps: sorry if my english is wrong, I speak French

Your English is fine Michael,

Make sure that the image size which is being used, is the correct one.
This setting is located in the category's parameters.

Thank you for your reply.

I've looked in the settings categories and those are the setting is present in the component's global settings that is recovered.

I shall send you an attachment, an example of my source image I upload and the result once uploaded.

original image before upload:


original image after upload :

Clear your cache and try again with a quality of 75.

I deleted the cache and nothing happens, the image is degraded and more pixelated than 75 to 100.

I think my problem is far from solved: /

@michael83

There is nothing you can do about this. PHP was not designed to process images. The result will always be worse when compared to a resized image produced by an image editor like Photoshop. Just ensure that the resize quality is set to 100 in K2 parameters so you get the best possible result.

I just posted a solution for anyone who desires optimized images but is not comfortable with using extra fields to manage their images:

Hello Joe,

I think you posted the wrong link.

@Krikor It's the right link, the forum spam filter would not let me use the K2 URL so I used a bitly link :)

I think I should change my middle name to "Workaround" - LOL

@Krikor I just posted some K2v3 suggestions to Git
github.com/joomlaworks/k2-v3-dev-build/issues/220

It's a shame in this case to be a loss of quality to upload while in the body of the article, there is no loss when I upload an image.
