 * running Twenty Seventeen Child 01 theme at [http://sailinginroatan.com/](http://sailinginroatan.com/)
 * I seem to have a problem controlling the image size, no matter what I do it just
   keeps the same size, you can see the last one I did is the facebook logo at the
   bottom of the page, I resized it to 50×37 and set to show original size but it
   just increases to the size that you see now, it does this on all settings, both
   links on that menu act the same.
 * What do you think?

 * Also using a Twenty Seventeen Child theme but working on my website in a desktop
   server so it is not live yet. I have the same problem as Alvin above, no matter
   if I set a custom image or an icon they are both super big no matter which size
   I choose in the image size drop down menu you have created.
    How can this problem
   be solved? Thanks, Cecilia

 * Hello!
 * Alvin101, check this screenshot [http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/2150257/a8e5e3015ec9731b93d2b854b7a85c12](http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/2150257/a8e5e3015ec9731b93d2b854b7a85c12),
   your theme’s CSS not expecting for small images in menu, you need to fix it by
   yourself via custom styles.
 * Smakasnack, if you have uploaded images before the plugin install then you need
   to re-create thumbnails for all images with this plugin: [https://uk.wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/](https://uk.wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/)

 * [@zviryatko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zviryatko/) thanks zviryatko
 * I see what you mean with the screen shot, however if I make changes in the style.
   css where you point out, it affects other images on the site.
 * Is there a way that I can make a change that would only effect the images in 
   the menu?
    In Menu Structure, under Image size, it is set to Original Size, should
   that not override style.css?
 * What do you think?

 * CSS is powerful and you can override some rules for specific cases, for example:`.
   main-menu a img` has more priority than `a img`, also you can mark it as important`
   a img { height: auto !important; }`.
 * Have fun 😉

 * > Should I change menu-image.css
 * No, better to create child theme with your own CSS file, or install plugin that
   allow you add CSS from admin.

 * Ok I made a change to your file… it seems to work for now, but when you upgrade
   I will loose it…
 * .menu-item a img {
    border: none; box-shadow: none; vertical-align: middle; height:
   auto; max-width:100%; display: inline;
