So close! Plugin doesn't want to load a few theme images…

Oh, and one interesting thing that you may already be aware of… I just bought my first Retina MBP but still have a lo-res external monitor that I’m doing most of my development work on. I had been wondering how Safari handles the dual-resolution environment, since you can load a site on one screen but then move the window to the other.

I never would have guessed that it works this way, but it actually switches the images out on the fly – if you drag the window from one side to the other and back again, you’ll see the site images flip back and forth between 1x and 2x as the middle of the window crosses the barrier between the monitors (i.e., >50% “wins”)! I think it actually must be an OS-level trick, because it works in Firefox as well. Nicely done, Apple. ??

Hello!

Retina works finer on your website except that “red” area, yes. The image is actually loaded through CSS (.post-img) as a background-image. Unfortunately you will have to write additionnal CSS code by yourself to handle this case, using media queries.

I was thinking of implementing something in the plugin directly but it is veru tricky to do and it is impossible to make it work in all cases.

I am surprised by what you said about the fact of switching screen and the re-loading images ?? But after giving it a few thoughts I realize that the PictureFill script is supposed to react to change in the browser and the retina value is part of it too. So yeah, thanks PictureFill! It is not an Apple thing actually ??

Ah, that explains it! I’ll get a media query setup going for those particular images.

And interesting about the source of the Retina image switching. I see what you mean, though there’s still an instruction on Apple’s end that’s telling the browser that the low/high resolution state has changed – I just verified that by dragging another app’s window across the 50% line.

Anyway, thanks for the help, and for the great product!
