    Hi all, I have 2 sites, MmGood.com and YourBestBite.com, I use the same foodie theme for both sites, I crop all my photos prior to importing them into my site, 640x480 and I'm having issues with my yourbestbite.com site, the photos are not staying the size I have cropped them to, then if I try to enlarge them, they blur. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    WordPress automatically crops photos to whatever sizes are defined in your child theme's functions.php, as well as the defaults built into WordPress itself. If you want a specific photo to display somewhere, define that size in functions.php.

    Also, with raster images (jpg, png), you cannot enlarge them in code. You will always experience pixelation. You have to upload image larger than the size you want and let the system crop them for you.

    Victor, thank you so much for the response, where do I find the functions.php?

    functions.php is in your child theme directory. It's best to FTP into the site to edit.
