By default, when you upload an image in WordPress, it’ll be compressed to reduce the image size. You can also upload the original images and keep WordPress from compressing JPGs.

Instructions: Add the following code to the functions.php file of your WordPress theme.


<?php
add_filter('jpeg_quality', function($arg){return 100;});
?>

You may also enjoy limiting number of images in a gallery.
