Abstract

A method may include receiving a first input containing a markup language file, an image, and a style sheet file having breakpoints and image display rules for generating image renditions of the image. The method may further comprise displaying a first image rendition based upon the breakpoints and the image, the first image rendition having the first image and crop borders corresponding to the breakpoints. The method may further comprise receiving an input indicating modification of the image rendition, and displaying a second image rendition based upon the modification to the first image rendition. The method may further comprise amending the markup language file with at least one image display rule based upon the second image rendition, the at least one image display rule conforming to the first set of image display rules.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A method comprising:
receiving a markup language file, and a style sheet file containing breakpoints and a set of image display rules for generating image renditions of a first image; displaying a first image rendition for the first image based on the breakpoints, the first image rendition having:
the first image; and
crop borders corresponding to the breakpoints;
receiving an input indicating a modification to the image rendition; displaying a second image rendition that includes the modification to the first image rendition; and amending the markup language file with at least one image display rule based upon the second image rendition, the at least one image display rule conforming to the set of image display rules.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the modification to the first image rendition includes selecting a new image.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the modification to the first image rendition includes selecting a new breakpoint for the second image rendition.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the modification to the first image rendition includes changes to the crop borders.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the modification to the first image rendition includes changes to scaling rules for the first image.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein amending the markup language includes identifying scaling rules that are enumerated in an image style sheet.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the first image rendition includes displaying a user interface that includes:
the image rendition based on the first image and the breakpoints; and a selection of image display strategies that may be selected and applied to the first image rendition.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the set of image display rules include an image size rule.
