    I ran my site (sweetsmarts.com) through the speed test:

    https://gtmetrix.com/

    One thing that came up is that my images don’t have dimensions. I’ve built my home page using Cornerstone, and I’m curious how I would do this? I’ve attached an image to show the note from the Pagespeed thing.

    Any thoughts? Is this something that can be improved in the theme/cornerstone?

    Hi There,

    You should upload your images with the necessary dimensions, that meaning if you are using an image that on your website is 400px x 200px you should not upload 800px x 400px.

    I use a Google Chrome Addons called Page Ruler to measure how big the images are needed.

    After re-sizing the images in photoshop or similar software, you should use http://www.tinypng.com to compress your images.

    Once they are uploaded to your website you can instal WP Smush it and compress it even a bit more,

    Hope that helps
