		rglover on Aug 20, 2012 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Designing for A Retina Web Out of curiosity, how do you handle bitmap images? My course of action up until this point has been to open up the original in Photoshop and double the size (mileage varies a bit but seems to work well). Do you have any recommendations for another approach?

I would suggest increasing the compression levels as well. With 4x the DPI bandwidth is an issue, but you don't notice compression artifacts as much.
