a) no, they look good on the iPhone because they are being resized by css,
so it's just the browser rendering a larger image smaller
b) potentially more customization or easier logic separation between
mobile/desktop, realistically I wouldn't recommend using them as responsive
websites seem to be becoming the industry standard
c) I would say yes

Good luck!

 I am confused as to how to go about making a Mezzanine web site I am

 Initially I thought that I had to use Mobile templates, but I have noticed
 that, for example, with a bootstrap Carousel on the home page (with large
 images), it looks fine on an IPhone (the images are automatically shrunk).

 So, some questions if I may...

 a) Does Mezzanine automatically serve smaller images when a mobile device
 accesses a web page? If so, is this a feature of Django, Mezzanine or
 Bootstrap? Can you point me in the direction of the code...
 b) What would the advantages and disadvantages be of using the Mobile
 templates?
 c) Should I only ever have one copy of an image stored and rely on the
 software to do the resizing? (I am guessing yes)

 Thanks
