Hello
I did some nice charts/illustrations - however when uploading them to WordPress they look rather blurry - how do you guys deal with retina images - are you using any plugins - what's the proper procedure to show crisp images on the high resolution screens.How about featured images that are showing as background images in a page banner?
Thank you in advance for your input.
To make sure an image is crisp on retina, it needs to be 2x the size. So if the image appears as 300x300 on the screen, it needs to be a 600x600 image.
WP Retina 2X is a decent plugin, which automatically makes a 2x copy of each image size then shows the larger image only to retina displays. This is ideal as you don't want to be loading larger images when not neccessary.
As for the background images, this will be controlled by the theme, some themes show full size images as backgrounds, in which case it's up to you to upload the correct size image.
I love helping creative entrepreneurs build epic things with WP & Genesis.
