 * Great, thanks a lot indeed. Where can I send you a message, I couldn’t find your
   address here.

 * I’ve done it but I’m still getting like 2000 requests with 3000 unique visitors
   daily. Weird. I reckon the Caching method should be set to “Refresh while loading”,
   right?

 * That’s very sad, because otherwise this is a great plugin.

 * It is now only 500! And they are asking for a ridiculous amount of money if you
   want to upgrade. I have about 3000 unique visitors daily and my count is around
   2000, which means 75% of my shares are not counted!

 * UPDATE: I just uploaded 2 large images (600 and 1200 megs) and interestingly 
   both are displayed ok in the blog. Can it be that only images up tp a certain
   size are compressed?
 * Thanks,

 * Just deactivated all plugins and it still happens. I also tried with your code
   on only as a plugin and all others deactivated. I upload a new picture and still
   the same…

 * Deer Keesiemeijer, we tried both ways you suggested (change theme css, create
   plugin) but to no avail – quite annoying considering that my wife and I must 
   have spent at least 60-70 working hours already trying to figure this out. Could
   this be a general issue pertaining to all WP blogs?
 * Also, any hints would be appreciated as to why WP has to compress uploaded images(
   in the downloadable version) when those files are stored on servers that users
   pay for anyway?
 * Thanks very much for your kind help!

 * Keesiemeijer, thanks very much for your prompt reply. This is very helpful, but
   regarding the example picture I just posted (detailed above and named “accordsezmarc3b.
   jpg” – which now you can see in the first post on the blog [http://www.earthlymission.com](http://www.earthlymission.com)):
   it was downsized from 13 kB to around 7 kB which means an 50% reduction. A 10%
   reduction, as you indicate above, would be perfectly ok but this much is rather
   annoying. What could be the problem? All in all, as I say above, WP does not 
   always reduce the uploaded images by 10%: the actual extent varies with apparently
   no logic at all. It could be 10%, or it could be 50%…
 * Thanks for getting back to me!

 * Andrew, thanks for your prompt reply. I switched to the Twenty Thirteen theme
   and uploaded a rather small image, and unfortunately the problem persists. I 
   left the picture there for your reference (its name is “accordsezmarc3b.jpg”),
   it is in the first post on the page. The size of the original image I uploaded
   is 13 kB. This what WP also displays in the right data column in the Media Library
   if I click on the image (Dimensions are: 370 × 238). But when I post the picture,
   it is downsized to 7,14 kB. The dimensions actually remain the same: it is the
   image quality that is reduced (which can be quite annonying in a case like this,
   when the image is of quite poor quality already – and even that is downsized 
   by half…)
 * I left the Twenty Thirteen theme and this example image on in the blog for your
   kind reference.
 * PS: This seems to happen to ALL the pictures I post, regardless of their original
   size – but the actual extent of downsizing varies.
 * I really appreciate your help – thanks very much!
 * Spacemaker
