Why Is WordPress Shrinking My Image?

WordPress is one of the most popular content management systems (CMS) in the world. It is used by millions of people every day to create and manage their websites.

But one of the downsides of WordPress is that it can consume your images pretty quickly. If you have a large image library, it can use a lot of space on your server.

And if your site is popular, it can use up a lot of bandwidth too.

So why is WordPress shrinking my images?

WordPress stores all of your images in a database. Whenever you upload a new image, WordPress looks through your image library and tries to find an appropriate file to use.

If your image is large, WordPress will probably download the entire file. If your image is small, WordPress will probably just use the cached version.

This can really slow down your site if your image library is large. And it can use up a lot of bandwidth if your site is popular.

The good news is that you can reduce the amount of space WordPress uses by optimizing your images. You can also reduce the amount of bandwidth WordPress uses by caching your images.

So if you’re noticing that your images are shrinking on your WordPress site, there are a few things you can do to optimize them and reduce the amount of bandwidth they use.
