    Hello

    I recently created a post with an image and was completely satisfied with the size the image was scaled to. The image size matched the length of the text below.

    However once I tested my site on GTMETRIX I received an F regarding scaled images.

    From GTMETRIX:

    "(IMAGE LINK) is resized in HTML or CSS from 625x416 to 540x359. Serving a scaled image could save 63.1KiB (26% reduction)."

    I have tried numerous different sizes of image and keep getting the same grade in GTMETRIX except for when I use the image size 540x359. However ideally I don't want my images to be 540x359 as it is too small. I would like them to be the ideal size so the width of the image matches the width of the text below. Is this possible to achieve whilst still maintaining an A grade for scaled images in GTMETRIX.

    What is the ideal width of an image in the genesis sample theme?

    Thanks.
