Serve higher-resolution icons to HiDPI displays #7

Closed citelao closed 9 years ago

Images are currently served assuming 72dpi, so icons on HiDPI displays do not look sharp (compare icons with button text):

Thanks for the feedback! We don’t load High-DPI versions of images mainly to keep the page size as small as possible. However, we’re looking into switching our icons to SVG from PNG images which should help ensure they look great on all displays.
