Lower image resolution

Hello everyone,
Unfortunately, another issue has come up, this time involving the image resolution.
Here’s what’s happening: An image that appears clear on a Mac ends up with a lower resolution when inserted into the Inquisit test. Even using a higher-quality image doesn’t seem to help much. Does anyone have a good solution for this?

Make sure the resolution of the images is as close to possible to the amount of pixels they'll end up taking up on-screen in your script. If you have an extremely high-resolution image that needs to be scaled down (because it only occupies, whatever, 20% of the screen), that'll degrade quality. The reverse is also true, if you have a very low resolution image and scale that too far beyond the pixels the image actually has, it'll look bad.

Bottom line: Ensure your images' resolution is such that they neither need to be extremely downscaled nor upscaled.
