# Resizing / max width image code problem

 * Sorry, but I’m getting a bit of a problem with this code. While it does indeed
   resize large images that would otherwise break borders, it also resizes smaller/
   low res images to the max width too (unless, for some reason, they are captioned).
   Can anything be added to the code to sort out this issue?
 *     ```
       p img {
         width: 100% !important;
         height: auto;
       }
       ```

 * Try `max-width: 100%;` instead.
