    Hi,

    What should the width size in pixels be for a full-width image on the featured area blog page?

    I have uploaded varying sizes of the image from 500px in width to over 1060 (the width of my page) and all seem to zoom in to crop the image – which means the text is cut off.

    I’m confused why it zooms it to crop the image not just display the image uploaded. I have set the widget to full size, 100%.

    Thanks

    So the Link Box widget didn’t seem to work at all so instead, I have inserted an image to the featured area.

    2 issues:

    1) the image quality is impaired. I have uploaded a number of sizes (the current one is huge) but for some reason on the site the quality is impaired and it seems blurred. Why?

    1) There is a white margin on the left and right of the image. How do I remove this?

    Thanks

    This is the code I used to add the image:

    <div class=”container”>

    </div>

    .container{
    width:100%;
    }

    .img {
    width:100%;
    );

    Any thoughts?

    Hi @marieteather
    I recommend you to use the intro widget for the featured area. Then upload your image as background image in the intro widget.
    If you want to get a sharp image on retinal assisted devices, it is recommended that the width of the photo is 1920px.
    After that, you can go to appearance > customize > featured area > intro > you can control padding, margin, size and so on.
    Thanks
