# How to Fix Blurry or Pixelated Images

## Learn how to fix blurry or pixelated images.

### Blurry or pixelated images

#### Why it occurs

- The image dimensions could be too small 
    - 500 px is the minimum width dimension used by Nova UI
    - Anything smaller will become pixelated as the image is stretched to fit
- Image assets may appear grainy or low resolution due to their format  
    - When images with text overlay (i.e multiple editing layers) are exported in a JPEG format the text could become pixelated
    - Normally, this occurs when the images are viewed in a window smaller than the resolution of the image
    - JPG compression reduces quality to decrease the file size
- PNG format is recommended as the image quality loss is minimized

#### **PNG vs JPG**

- PNG is a lossless compression file format
- This makes it a common choice for use on the Web
- PNG is a good choice for storing line drawings, text, and iconic graphics at a small file size
- JPG is a smaller compression file format at the expense of resolution
- It useful for storing photographs at a smaller size than a BMP
- The third-party website [tinypng.com](http://tinypng.com/) can be used to reduce the file size of assets

#### **Pixelated Image Workaround**

- If the image appears to be pixelated
- Try to download the highest resolution version of the image
- Convert from JPG to PNG using a third-party website  
    1. Navigate to a converter website like [Adobe Express](https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/convert/jpg-to-png), [CloudConvert](https://cloudconvert.com/jpeg-to-png), [jpg2png](https://jpg2png.com/), [Convertio](https://convertio.co/jpeg-png/), [FreeConvert](https://www.freeconvert.com/jpeg-to-png), etc
    2. Upload the JPG to the converter
