    Alt images for different screen size

    Hi Doug,

    I'm looking at the documentation for ImageGen and looking at the AltBrowser & AltImage and looking at the link in the doc (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httpbrowsercapabilities.aspx) there is a ScreenPixelsWidth property.

    So was wondering if it is possible to have multiple AltBrowser & AltImage for different ScreenPixelsWidth so different browser widths load different sized images?

    Thanks,

    Tom

    I don't use the browsercaps feature directly like that so not as such. But there are options!

    Check out how Pete Duncanson handles responsive images with ImageGen though. He had a great presentation at the last UK Festival. The ImageGen stuff is near the end.

    @Douglas,

    Was this talk on the videos?  Was it in the same talk that the uSiteBuilder talk was?

    @Doug, 

    Did you ever find a solution to this technique?

    Carlos,

    I've started to use this following technique and use imagegen for the image path.

    @Tom,

    Does this require the use of more than 1 image to be served up?

    This is kind of what I am trying to get away from, using multiple images to deal with the whole Retina display issue.

    @Tom,

    Is there a way to you tell the script to ignore certain images?

    @Carlos, @Tom, @Dan, Pete has made a nice blog post about responsive and ImageGen that builds on his talk at the UK Festival. Full blog post at http://offroadcode.com/blog/2013/1/31/mobile-friendly-images,-creating-responsiveadaptive-images-with-imagegen/

    Hope that's helpful!

    cheers,
    doug.
