Images not Downscaled when uploaded from CMS?

Resize

First, webflow do not (yet) auto compress/resize images the “original image” (It will be a great feature/plugin).

Somehow to automatically resizes uploaded images to the max dimensions = DREAM :slight_smile:

Anyway - if for “facebook icon” 30px X 30px width/height - you decide to use 6000px X 6000px 3mb image - no tool could disable this.

Background images

Next, Responsive images only work for image element (<img src="...) not for background-images.

This features generates responsive variants for all inline JPGs and PNGs, except those added via rich text elements. It also doesn’t apply to background images./ webflow docs
