Question

CC Express web page project images render pixelated on mobile devices - compression issue?

  • February 6, 2022

The images I upload for my web page project in CC Express render pixelated on mobile devices.

This is occuring for both .png files and .jpg files. It is occuring for images uploaded to the title portion and to the glideshow.

This is occurring in mobile devices when viewing the page in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome

 

I have attempted:

  • uploading both .jpg and .png versions of the images
  • changing the file sizes to very small
  • changing the file sizes to very large
  • uploading a variety of file sizes between small and large
  • doing the above for both .png and .jpg files

 

What can I do differently so my webpage images render properly on mobile devices?

 

I have attached screenshots of how the images appear on mobile devices, as well as examples of the files that I've uploaded.

 

I am creating vector graphics in Illustrator and saving as either .png or .jpg to create these files. I am not having this issue with photography-based images. This is a problem specific to the web page project feature of CC Express and how images render on mobile devices when this type of project is created.

 

I am a Master's level graduate student studying graphic design - please assume I understand the basics of our field and help me solve this very nuanced problem. Thank you.

Hey!

 

I was experiencing a similar issue when trying to schedule posts to instagram, only this time with my photography. I would use the "Instagram Post" preset for a new project and then put my pictures into multiple pages to form a carousel. But when I wanted to schedule my post and I downloaded all pages, the file sizes would be super small (1.4mb per average) and my images would be severly compressed and pixelated. 

 

I seem to have found a fix by creating a custom page thats much bigger 4000px by 4000px and working from there. That seems to have improved my resutls. Give it a try and see if it helps!

Hi there,

 

Many thanks for the information. This is to inform you, it's not possible for us to recommend a single "best image size" for image types that fill the screen (Title, Fill Screen, Window, Glideshow) due to the fact that the size of the image shown depends on the size of the device the viewer is viewing from. You will simultaneously have widely varying screen sizes. From very tall and narrow (like an iPhone in portrait orientation), to square (like a desktop), to very wide (like an iPhone in landscape orientation). Kindly write us back if have any issues.

 

Thanks,

Manmeet

Hi and thank you for your response,

 

The problem is occurring no matter what size file I upload.

 

The problem is not related to file size. There is something else going on.

 

Thanks,

Emily
