[css-d] Image scaling

2010-09-11 Thread Yogesh Agashe
Hello,

I am developing a website where we deal with lot of thumbnail images which
are almost always scaled down or up.

I use ubuntu 10.04 and have observed that images which are scaled down look
very poor in Firefox, which is not the case with Google Chrome. Also images
in IE7 on windows xp look very poor as well. I was wondering what are
various options that work cross-browser when scaling images .

Any help or pointers on this are much appreciated.

Thank you.
Yogesh

A similar question was posted to the list a week or so ago.
Fwiw, see if this reply to that need meets your requirement?

This should help out IE 7 -

img { -ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic; }

You'd be better off scaling them beforehand, though. You do know that
you can use server-side processing to scale images, yes?

Cordially,
David

[css-d] Using templates from CSS Zengarden site

2010-09-11 Thread Janet Lenius
Hello.  I am new to this discussion group.  Has anyone attempted to modify a
template from the CSSzengarden.com website?  I noted that the html files
completely lack all div tags.  Any advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Janet

Hello,

When I use firefox view source the html shows plenty of div elements.
So I'm not sure if you are referring to something else.

By the way, if you look in the style sheets you will notice the following:

/* IMPORTANT */
/* This design is not a template. You may not reproduce it elsewhere
without the
   designer's written permission. However, feel free to study the CSS and use
   techniques you learn from it elsewhere. */

Regards,
Claude Needham
