Why Your Email Signature Logo Looks Blurry (The 96 DPI Secret)

By Image Size Compress Team

Nothing kills professional credibility faster than a pixelated, blurry company logo in your email signature. You upload a high-quality file, but Gmail or Outlook ruins it. Why?

The Scaling Issue

Email clients behave strangely when images are resized using HTML code. If you upload a 1000px wide logo and force it to display at 200px, it often gets blurry.

The Fix: Exact Resizing

You must resize the image to the **exact** pixel dimensions you want it to display at. Do not let the email client resize it for you. 1. Decide the size (e.g., 300px wide). 2. Resize your PNG to exactly 300px width. 3. Run it through our **PNG Compressor** to strip metadata (Outlook hates metadata). 4. Upload the optimized file. Your signature will now look crisp on Retina screens and standard monitors alike.
