Header logo doesn't display properly

    Hello, I am using the Corporate theme for my website (luminaconseil.ca) and my logo appears blurry (on every kind of screen).
    Is there anything I am doing wrong? I tried to reduce the size of the image, to change its format, but it’s still blurry…
    Can you please help me?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    Your logo doesn’t appear blurry to me. If I compare the logo as it appears on your site to the media file at https://toutcomca.files.wordpress.com/2020/02/lumina-couleur-e1582830294171.png they look the same to me – this is the media file:

    And this is the version that’s being loaded on your site itself:

    On a Retina screen I do notice some blurriness – that’s because a Retina screen uses around double the amount of pixels to display an image at the same size as a regular screen. To make sure the image is crisp on Retina screens as well, try creating a PNG that’s double the size needed, so if your theme displays the logo at 172x131px, you’ll want an image that’s 344x262px.

    Hello there,

    Thank you for your answer. I tried what you said, but it didn’t work well. I took a print screen, please have a look in my media section: the image is just bigger and blurrier…

    Which is?… I had a graphic designer working on it and trying different solutions/formats. If I ask for support in this forum it’s because we don’t know what we could try more than we already did, and maybe we missed something in the backend.

    Is the artist or designer that created this image able to provide it to you at different specs?

    Hi folks. I don’t know if this will help, but here are some versions of the image with larger dimensions, from the page https://www.facebook.com/luminaconseil/:

    1. 960 x 960 pixels
    2. 720 x 720
    3. 370 x 370

    Thanks @musicdoc1.


    @camillasironi
    I can see you’re using a smaller image currently. It looks okay on both my retina and non-retina screen.

    If you like it bigger, do you wan to try using the 960×960 px image @musicdoc1 mentioned?

    Thank you, all of you!


    @supernovia
    , I don’t know, it still seems to me that the resolution is not as good as the other images or texts in the website…

    anyway, I will try it in another dimension, and thanks @musicdoc1 to be so kind to provide them :)

    I’ll keep you posted if it works :)

    @supernovia, @camillasironi,

    You’re welcome : ) My point was that, while I was unable to try creating a logo on the retired premium theme Corporate and don’t know what the available options are on the theme, starting with a larger image of relatively high quality might result in improvement of the quality of the displayed logo, even if scaled and cropped to the same size as the present one, if that hasn’t already been attempted.

    It’s not clear to me whether my suggestion differs significantly from that offered above by @kokkieh, where he says, “try creating a PNG that’s double the size needed.”

    Just to be clear, simply resizing the PNG to bigger dimensions won’t work – that will result in a poorer quality image as making an image bigger always results in quality loss.

    You’ll need to go to the original SVG file or photoshop project or whatever you used to design the logo, and export it directly from there at the larger dimensions.
