Two main areas to fix this:

• There are a lot of errors from stale references to images. I think we need a data cleanup.
• This and performance are affected by images that are either way too big or way too small. We could create a step to scale images before deployment but it'll be a decent lift.

Hi, I have opened a pull request related to this issue.

I found that one of the lighthouse warnings was caused by a broken external image link under the Public Lab project card. The original URL returned net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED, so I replaced the image source with a local asset instead.

This removes the console error, improves the Best Practices score, and prevents the image from failing to load.

Here is the PR:

Feel free to review and let me know if there’s anything that should be adjusted. Thanks!
