I just bought the theme because the demo looks so very promising.
I am about to setup my page. I noticed that all of my main images in the full-screen slider look heavily compressed. I used high quality images in 2500px and 2000px width. Is there an option to turn off the compression?
On my page you can clearly see the compressed quality of the images.
Interesting is: the fullscreen slider is super compressed, once you click on a portfolio project the background hero image is getting better quality (but not the full quality).
And there seems to be a black overlay on the hero images..
.black-overlay .item-caption { display: none; }
is not working here..! Any help?
For me as a photographer it is very important to show high quality. The MacBook Pro retina display is kind of a standard regarding resolution. So it has to work here.
I would really appreciate if you have a solution me.
On a mac you have 2,560×1,600 resolution size. You have used 1600 x 1068 images sizes in the slider. Try to use bigger images but save them for web in photoshop
Thanks for you reply, but in my first post I wrote I already tried 2500px images with the result that they are downsampled. And there is a black gradient on top of the hero slider..

Hello Michael,
The standard we use is to have 1600px width for full-width images and 800px width for thumbnails
This is roughly the average width for images.
If you are using Adobe Photoshop, save images with 60% quality.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thank you.

so my images are too big?
I use 80% compression because I need them to remain in high quality. Now it looks kind of downsampled.
Any idea?
Please provide us your website url. Thanks
Thank you.

It looks fine on my desktop. What monitor and resolution do you use?
Thank you.

Remove this from showcase.css at line 82
