Proportionately detailed
Using smaller versions of images on the home and/or category pages? Crop the image first so only the part of the image that captures its essence is viewable. Only then reduce this cropped image in size. By removing some of the detail the image won't appear so cluttered and unclear. Users struggle with images that are too small for the level of detail involved.
