How to reduce the size of inserted images?

Profile picture for user albacore

When I insert images they seem to come out pretty big, even if I have previously edited the image to reduce the size in pixels.

Sometimes you don't want or need the inserted image to be large; is there a way to reduce its size?

There is some kind of setting to insert image at original size, but I couldn't get it work.

The images look a bit absurd on a computer but the full width images look great on phones, which is what most people visit the site on now.

I think I have code running that actually scales down the images when you upload them but I am not in a place to confirm that right now.

Click on the inserted image, an outline highlighted in blue shows, then select a corner to resize. I literally just discovered this today. Alternatively you can code height and width.

The resize takes effect on both desktop and mobile as far as I can tell.
