Interesting. I've never thought of specifying image size in em's. The problem of image degradation would
still be an issue, I'm sure, since an image may be specified for display in em's in a browser, but would still start its life in pixels (if it's not a vector graphic), unlike text, which isn't an enlargement of a static entity, but is created anew in larger dimensions. Something to think about, however.

This is so that if a user bumps up the text size (ctrl +) that the image will get bigger at the same ratio. Of course the text would need to be in EM also. This is something that I personally have not gotten into yet, but it may become a requirement for one of my contracts.

Enlarging the text would be a start, but if I were having great difficulty viewing the screen, I would want a solution that allows me to view images, as well. Rick
