Is it just me, or is this site not retina/high DPI-aware? All the images look kind of blurry to me.
Edit: here's a screenshot https://i.imgur.com/xTmYLgv.jpg. The left-hand side is the online viewer, while the right is the downloaded image viewed in the mac preview app. The download is obviously much higher quality.
It kind of bugs me that they can't get this right.
If you're talking about thumbnails, I think they made the right choice. Just the top part of the homepage already contains 5MB of image assets. Scrolling down a few times quickly ups that to 15MB and more. I'd rather have reasonably sized and optimized images throughout the site - with high resolutions ones as downloads - and a very speedy browsing experience, then the other way around.
However, I would expect the online tiled image viewer to show the full, high quality image - at least, when zoomed in.
Yeah, I think the default view on the page is of average quality. Not sure why, but it seems to be a completely intentional choice. I think to download high-dpi they want you to register an account. /shrug
