7.6.1 installed
I know you developers prefer ImageMagick over GD2 please read below test.
ImageMagick does not seem to work as GD2" when it comes to reduce pixel size.
What can be wrong??? as it is now I will use GD2 but I want off course to use ImageMagick so what can I do to change the way ImageMagick works???
Is this something I can change or maybe the forum software or my host I use a VPS service from Interserver.
Please advice

The original photo was 7,3MB .jpg all uploads are the same photo

Gallery forum test: one using GD2 and one using ImageMagick.
Test is done to compare the full size image.
As you can see GD2 reduces the full size image pixels down to 800x500px while ImageMagick keeps the original 3780x2389 pixels size.
I have used a 90% high resolutions just to get a good image with GD2. Thumbs and Medium are default sizes.

Below are same test but for forum posts I used only 10% resolution to see how the image quality.
GD2 reduced the size down to 800x505px just like the Gallery did
and ImageMagick did not reduce the pixel size.
