By giving same width and height to your image every time then all of your post will be looked same and have perfect map on blog home page. Robot will also make a string and will be easier to give same proper dimention to your main post image. If you ever analyzed we always insert image by adding this dimension.
<img width="315" height="260" src="URL of image"/>
Note: We are giving these value inside adobe-photoshop you should must customize your image by giving width=315 & height=260. Do not try to make your image small by giving small value. Let me explain.
Remember: If you have uploaded an image to your post which have width=650 & height=450 then do not make it small by using HTML tag to make it smaller because it will same for robot and will have same loading time which was on its original size. do not use Html for reduce its size make the image smaller before uploading to your post.
