Looks really bad on my retina Macbook pro, all pixelated. If he's to do that JPG stuff, he ought to include x2 images :)

- untog 14y agoThe retina Macbook is going to be in a small minority for a while yet- don't expect people to be leaping out of their seats to accomodate you!
- tammer 14y agoCatering to these users now will preserve the design for the next round of display technology. We all know the future belongs to these types of displays.
- untog 14y agoSure, in a perfect world when you have no other pressing issues to attend to. If you do, making @2x versions of every image on your site is going to slide down the scale of necessity.
- manmal 14y agoHave you looked at the Windows 8 tablet resolutions yet? > 1080 will be the new defacto standard.
- darkstalker 14y agoIf the apps could use the real pixels instead of a "retina 2x" mode, there wouldnt be any problems. Those things are apple-specific implementation details (badly designed imho).
- lazerwalker 14y agoApps can use 'the real pixels'. The lastest builds of Final Cut Pro X and iMovie can show full 1080p video at native resolution in their tiny 3-inch preview windows, and most games will let you set the resolution to the native 2880x1800 . That wouldn't actually improve this situation, though. Showing this image at native resolution would make the text not be pixellated, sure, but it would also be near-unreadable at 1/4th the size.
