I’m trying to improve page speeds on my site and one of the areas that I’m struggling with is the Bookmark widget.

I have a page that uses a bunch of these and when I review the page resources, it appears to be loading the full image size instead of a small responsive image. I’m sure this isn’t the case, but can someone please confirm this for me.

This is the html snippet from a Bookmark card that I have loaded on my page. It is using an Unsplash image at what appears to be full size.

```auto
<figure class="kg-card kg-bookmark-card">
	<a class="kg-bookmark-container" href="###">
        <div class="kg-bookmark-content">
            <div class="kg-bookmark-title">###</div>
            <div class="kg-bookmark-description">.###</div>
            <div class="kg-bookmark-metadata link-image"><img class="kg-bookmark-icon no-lightense" src="###" alt=""><span class="kg-bookmark-author">###</span><span class="kg-bookmark-publisher">###</span></div>
        </div>
        <div class="kg-bookmark-thumbnail link-image">
        	<img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1550745165-9bc0b252726f?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=2000&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" alt="" class="no-lightense">
        </div>
    </a>
</figure>

```

That is the case. Bookmark cards access external images so will use whatever the bookmarked site provides as the image url, there’s no downloading and manipulation of assets.

Thanks for clarifying @Kevin.
