 * We use Hummingbird to optimize our site but have been experiencing image duplication
   challenges. Uploaded images are being duplicated many times – hundreds of times
   in most cases – and are severely bloating my server usage. One uploaded image
   turns into 270 versions of that image. Multiplied over months, it causes storage
   overages of multiple GB.

 * Hi [@jayplotkin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jayplotkin/)
 * Shareaholic adds only 1 image size – for Related Post thumbnails.
 * Have you tried contacting Hummingbird support?

 * I did. We’re using the free version so they recommended I try WP support first.

 * [@jayplotkin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jayplotkin/) This particular
   forum is for Shareaholic specifically.
 * Perhaps ask in the more general WP troubleshooting support forum?
