Hello!

So, I (very) recently switched computers to one with a retina display and ever since then, every image on Subeta appears very blurry to me, as if I was zoomed in on my browser - which I am not. I figured this is because of the difference in pixel resolution on my new display... but I can't quite figure it out how to fix it.

I tried changing my screen resolution to no avail. From what I've gathered on Google (lol), different browsers try to rescale images in different ways. I've also come across: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/image-rendering This page with CSS that some people have suggested as a solution but I can't quite figure out what combination of codes to use. Apparently Google Chrome doesn't support the crisp-edges options and in Safari, crisp-edges still look weird.

Am I missing something obvious? Probably hehe. I would love if anyone could help me!!

I don't know how this applies to a retina monitor, I have an older LCD monitor that I've been using for years. I recently upgraded to a new laptop, but plugged in my old monitor because its so much bigger. At first, my images were all blurry and I tried fixing it with various monitor settings and resolutions. Nothing really worked.

Then I found a site to properly calibrate my monitor where it explained frame rates, contrast, clock and a bunch of other things. It helped enormously. Now I'm not talking just about color calibration, but the whole monitor. You might investigate this with respect to retina monitors. It may help.

Thank you! It would be weird though if a new laptop didn't come in fully calibrated... but it wouldn't hurt to try, of course. Could you maybe point me to the site you used? ^_^ Again thanks for the response.

This is the site I used, but its specific to LCD monitors. Not sure if it would even apply to yours. But it will give you an idea of what I'm talking about :).

"Factory" settings are not necessarily the right settings, strangely enough! They usually just pick the middle - so if the scale is 0-100, they set it to 50. And for a monitor in particular, the setting, the lighting levels where you use it and so forth can make a big difference.
