How can I prevent my images from shrinking unexpectedly in Webflow? I've tried adjusting min width, max width, and max height but haven't found a solution yet.

If you're experiencing unexpected image shrinking in Webflow, there are a few potential solutions you can try:

1. Check the container size: Ensure that the container or parent element of your image has sufficient width and height to accommodate the image without causing it to shrink. If the container is too small, the image may automatically resize to fit within the available space.

2. Disable responsive sizing: By default, Webflow applies responsive sizing to images, which allows them to resize proportionally based on the width of the viewport. However, this can sometimes result in unexpected image shrinking. To prevent this, you can disable responsive sizing for a specific image by selecting it and going to the "Settings" tab in the right sidebar. Under "Width", select "Fixed" instead of "Responsive". This will keep the image at its original size regardless of the screen width.

3. Adjust image settings: In the image settings panel, you can specify different size-related properties such as width, height, min-width, max-width, min-height, and max-height. Make sure these settings are properly adjusted to fit your requirements. For example, if you set a maximum width that is smaller than the image's natural size, the image may shrink to fit within that limit.

4. Use CSS Flexbox or Grid: If you're using a layout component like Flexbox or Grid, make sure you have defined the correct settings and dimensions for your image elements within the layout. Improperly configured layout components can affect the image sizing and cause unexpected shrinking.

5. Check code overrides: If you have applied any custom code to override Webflow's default behavior, review that code to ensure you're not inadvertently causing the image to shrink. Custom CSS or JavaScript modifications might interfere with the intended image display.

6. Preview in different devices: Test your website in different devices and screen sizes using Webflow's preview mode. This will allow you to identify any responsive issues that may be causing the image to shrink unexpectedly on specific devices or breakpoints.

If you have tried these steps and are still experiencing issues, it may be helpful to reach out to Webflow support or consult the Webflow community forum for further assistance.
