Could you please post a link to the site so I can debug it? Thanks!
Wow, I’m bad at this. Of course, here it is! 🙂

No worries!!! It looks like everything is working correctly. Are there any particular images that look bad to you? Also, what are your Media Settings?
Thanks!

The images just have a light quality degrade from the originals I upload, in particular the yellow cable car on the front page. I could put together an image with the side by side comparison when I get home
Hmmm. You might want adjust how much WordPress is compressing your jpeg files. It’s pretty easy to tell WordPress to not compress your images.
Here is an article on how to fix the issue.
Also, please run Regenerate Thumbnails after changing your compression level.
Let me know how it goes!
I will give this a try and set the thread to fixed afterwards. Thanks for all of your help!
The image quality is still really low, and it is more and more noticeable the more photos we upload. More specifically, the sharpness goes way down and the color is pretty off as well (showing warmer tons than the original upload). Even with no compression and quality-boosting plugins, we are having no luck.
We have also decreased the image size uploaded which hasn’t helped either.
Do you have any other suggestions? The site is a photography portfolio so the image quality is really important to us! Thanks.
Hmmm. Are you uploading jpegs or pngs?
i have tried both
the png made no difference so the ones now are jpg
and RGB color
That’s pretty crazy. What other image quality/compression plugins are you using?
Alright. Let’s try this: Deactivate the ImageMagick plugin. Make sure you have your JPEG quality set to 100 (as described in this tutorial http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/how-to-change-jpeg-compression-in-wordpress/ ) and then rerun the Thumbnail generator.
I apologize if you have already tried that combination, but I really think this should do it.
