re-opening this topic which we have discussed earlier. The thumbnails for packs and collections have low resolution. This occurs when the thumbnail is uploaded via the client.
please let me know the technical limitations in the new architecture (if any) and fix the issue with the web developer if possible.

The compress images process is done on the server side for api add/edit pack and collection. So the server side resized the images to 400*400 and convert them to jpg with 75% quality. But the server side doesn't resize the images which uploaded over the admin panel, this will case loading delays and memory overhead on the client side. So, what we should do is: -Playing with resizing and encode quality settings to get best results. -Process the images which uploaded over admin panel.
Please send me an image, and we will create multiple packs with different quality settings, so you will be able to test it on your side.
below is the link to a thumbnail. we will use those types of thumbnails with twice the size, so they look HD on retina screens. the same applies for rectangular thumbnails and slideshow images.

Please check it with new build, is it look better for new images? Also please compare the quality of images in offline mode (which processed by client) and in online mode (when the image is processed by server side)
Pierre henri Seylan on July 24, 2019:
I've made a test with online and offline images and the quality is now good, and almost identical for offline and online.
question: -It is now also improved for slideshow and rectangular images? -Can we now fix the header images in the details page? (see below)
Header images: The image used in the details page header are still overly stretched, eve with new images. The format used is probably wrong, please try to fix it, since we ow have finalized the thumbnnail's resolutions. This is to double check and fix for both rectangular and squared thumbnails.

-It is now also improved for slideshow and rectangular images? Not yet, the web dev going to work on that. So we will compress them, but in different resolutions. -Can we now fix the header images in the details page? I will try to fix that on the client side by using the square image, but if it's not possible then maybe we need to save and use rectangular version for that.

Feedback:
-Please use rectagular images for packs and collections.
-Web dev should fix it for all types of images (slideshow, rectangular images)
-We should also fix the resolution in the "read more" panel, the side image is compressed, see below. you need to click "see more" on a pack which has a long text description.
