Description

Images for market items take a long time to load, which negatively impacts user experience when browsing the marketplace.

Suspected Cause

The image loader may not be optimizing uploaded images to more sensible sizes for web display when users add items to their market store. Full-resolution images are likely being served directly without resizing or compression.

Expected Behavior

When a user uploads an image for a market item, the system should:

  • Resize the image to appropriate dimensions for web display
  • Compress the image to reduce file size while maintaining acceptable quality
  • Possibly generate multiple sizes (thumbnails, previews, full-size) for different contexts

Current Behavior

Images appear to load slowly, suggesting they may be served at their original uploaded size without optimization.

Suggested Investigation

  • Check if the image upload handler includes any resizing/compression logic
  • Verify what image formats and sizes are being stored and served
  • Consider implementing image optimization on upload or serving optimized versions via CDN/image processing service
