Things that are sized well on an iPhone 3GS isn't going to look the same on a retina iPhone or an iPad. Within HTML, I use CSS to resize my images depending on the device, and that seems to work out ok. Cheers! -- Smug Comments It varies on the device.

I'm planning to use width:100% and max-width: 450/600 px in css. My question is, if I centre the image would these images still look acceptable? What in your opinion is the smallest possible image width that is "acceptable" for most devices? Comments Thanks Smug. Most of my pics are either 450px or 600px.
