Viewing Easy retina support

Easy retina support

Guys,

It's great to see you have thought about Retina support but the way it's implemented is a little odd.
Having to rename a file to a @2X.jpg is seriously odd.

I wonder why you do not let the user add a high resolution file, use that as the retina file and create a copy of the same file in low-res for standard usage. like image.jpg -> image_hr.jpg ( high res ) and image_lr.jpg ( low-res ) .

Ah yes very helpful, thank you.

A 400x400 pixel image can be a retina and downsized to 200x200 kan be a normal resolution picture.
In effect any image can be a retina image depending on the pixel size. So a 400x400 pixel image will be displayed as 200x200 for retina and 200x200 for sd but in the latter it will only use 200x200.

So when you upload a 400x400px image and have that set as a 200x200 HD Retina image, then a subset image of 200x200 can be created from the original 400x400 pixel image and automatically be used as the standard 200x200px image.

So what's odd about my request then ?

Using @2x for the image name is the standard way to name high resolution images.
