# Microsoft Edge Image Issue

 * I am having an issue with Microsoft Edge and images. If you look at the page 
   link provided below…. in Google Chrome you will see an image of a man holding
   his back next to the main content on the page.
 * In Microsoft Edge it is like the image is huge and it only shows like 1% of the
   image.
 * Chrome seems to scale the image properly and ME completely ignores any sizing/
   scaling.
 * Can any one help with this? Thank you!

 * I don’t have Edge, but apparently some versions have problems with `srcset`, 
   which is what is in your page. [https://www.caniuse.com/#search=srcset](https://www.caniuse.com/#search=srcset)
   
   I expected to see `object-fit` being used, as that is not totally handled by 
   Edge ([https://www.caniuse.com/#search=object-fit](https://www.caniuse.com/#search=object-fit)),
   but I didn’t see it in there.
 * Your page has the huge image referenced, and smaller versions in the `srcset`.
   I would have specified the image most likely to be used (the small one), and 
   then the `srcset` can reference all the larger ones. Why would you ever need 
   that image to be more than 5000 pixels across? It’s a waste of your server disk
   space to store such huge images plus all the smaller ones that actually might
   get used.
