Description Andreas Nilsson 2015-01-05 11:33:37 UTC 
Running on a 13" monitor with a 3200x1800 resolution, gnome.org looks fuzzy due to the upscaling.

Two methods could work:
1. Provide all assets in 2 resolutions, one "normal" and one hidpi. Better download times on non-hidpi-screens, but extra work to create content.
2. Provide everything in the higher resolution and scale down to normal with css. Heavier loading times for the visitors.

Branch here. Will see if I'm able to put it on gnome git tomorrow without breaking anything.
