the module works fine
modify the widht and height of the image in the superarticles panel and u'll see the difference of the image quality.
if u want show little images is better u choose thumbnails, but if u set a width of 300 px is better u choose medium or large images, otherwise if u choose the thumb image, the image showed will be pixelate.

this parameter not works for category images but works only for article images

Dear Speck,
Thanks for your kind support.
I followed your way and settled my problem.
But i think the problem i met before is still there.
For example,  i want to use medium img. I choose image type: " medium" .
But in the frontpage, it is still thumb img.

anyway, i resize the image by resizing the width and height.  It is successful.

Only i think the module is with some bug.

Best regards.

Dear Speck,

It is very strange. I cannot get these effect.

What i can get is only thumb images.

Whatever i set " medium " or " big" , there is no response. 

But i settle the problem with resizing.

Thanks for your support.

Maybe it is template problem. I use "flex".

Best regards.

I finally find the problem, when i choose image type, i should set : thumb width also in the blank area.

the layout in mobile version depends always by template.
in my modules i try to use always the less css possibles to not become crazy users about their templates,
i create only css classes as a base to get a better a standard layout.
in this case u need put hand to css file of the template and add something like that

.superarticles .elx_featured_box  .elx_content_imagebox img {
    height: auto;
    width: 50% !important;
}
or
.superarticles  .elx_content_imagebox img {
    height: auto;
    width: 50% !important;
}
or
.superarticles  img {
    height: auto;
    width: 50% !important;
}

width:50%!important;
because it seems the width is setted to 100%. (sorry i not know flex and i never used flex. i use always my own templates).
this is not a problem of the module and template, because for any module or plug in u used not included in elxis, u need always create you own css to adapt them to the template.

about the type of image to choose depends always to width of the image u set.
if u want show in the module an image with a width 250px, is better to use a medium image (only if his value is greater than yours) or a big image, how is useless to use a medium or big image if u want show a image with a witdh of 60px. in this case is better to choose thumbnail image.

Dear Speck,
Thanks a lot for your patience.
I will try with that .

Elxis is easy to use but i am not familiar with CSS and other . So i am a basic one for website building. 

Elxis need more templates . I think. 
Why not share your templates in exlis download center. So that EXLIS could be more popular.

Just idea.

Thanks a lot .
