Tips for best image quality
Start with the largest clear source image you have, especially for banners and high quality portfolio shots.
Use crop mode when the platform needs an exact look. Use fit mode with a background color when the full image must remain visible.
For photos, JPG is usually reliable. For sharp text, logos, and transparent graphics, PNG can be better. For smaller files, try WebP.
