Retina @2x Plugin
A plugin that looks for retina images automatically based on the @2x naming convention.
This plugin adds a simple Javascript to your WordPress website that will check for each image if there is a retina version available. This will make sure that your images (logo’s, buttons, images with text) look sharp on Apple devices with retina displays.
When you have for example a logo of 200 by 200 pixels called “Logo.png”, you will need to upload a second image of 400 by 400 pixels called “[email protected]” in the exact same directory.
Installation

Will this work with images from a CDN?
No, we might add this later.
What’s the difference between Retina @2x and other Retina plugins?
Other plugins may automatically generate the retina version of your image(s). This plugin is much more simple and lightweight and only looks for retina images. If you don’t upload a “@2x” version, the original image will be shown and therefore not look sharp on mobile devices.
