I could only do something like that when I implement image uploads instead of the current hack. That way I could do server-side processing and, for example, output two different resolutions which will display depending on your device rez.

The Guild already supports high res image embedding. What prevents using the same concept for profile pictures, and then have the server scale it down, and perform all the necessary alternations (such as the displayed resolution, as you mentioned)? For instance, is there anything that would make it impossible for the server to take these image URls, make the alterations server-wise, as if it were a local file, and display the altered output?
