Why should we need Mobile Friendly Images?

The most amount of traffic that your blog get from such devices which are smaller , more slower and low bandwidth devices.On these such type of small screen devices your desktop images take more time for loading and this thing creates a bad effect on users.
So by making your Blogger images Responsive your High resolution images will Load Fast and also SEO ranking Will increase of your blog.

Different Image Size For Different Pages:

We use Images in different Places and for different Pages.For Example we use images in header, footer, sidebar. The Most number of images that we use are in Post Content.All the Time a blogger wish to display his Thumbnails Images in Small size on homepage posts and would like to display those images in Larger Size in Post Content whenever his post page is viewed by someone.Therefore Different Images size for Different Pages.

As the Images that were in Header and in Post Content are more wider than those images that were used in Blog Footer and in Sidebar . So we have to Style Each image type Accordingly .

Find Parent IDs or Classes:

So we need to find what is The Parent ID or Parent Class of any HTML Elements in our Blogger.
Here are the Parent IDs or Parent Classes in our case:

1:The Parent Class or Parent ID for Header widgets is .headerright  and .headerleft
2:The Parent Class or Parent ID for Sidebar column is .#sidebar .widget-content
3:The Parent Class or Parent ID for Footer ID is #lowerbar-wrapper.
4:The Parent Class or Parent ID for Post is .post

As we are going to customize the images in our Blogger , therefore as we know that for every image in blogger we have <img> HTML TAG ,so we will use img class for all the Above Parent Classes and Parent IDs .

Select Device Breakpoints

Now Here In this part We have to Add this CSS Codes in our Blogger Template HTML  for the device Breakpoints With Adding this CSS Responsive Cheat Sheet.We will Choose a breakpoint of 786px which is MyZone.Here is our Following CSS code that we are going to add in our Blogger template.

/*-----Mobiles, Tablets MyZone ----------*/

@media only screen and (max-width:768px) {

.headerright a img,.headerleft a img{
max-width: 75%!important;
margin-left: 0;
position: absolute; height:auto;
left: 30px;}

.post a img, .post img{max-width:95%; height:auto;}

#sidebar .widget-content a img , #sidebar .widget-content img { max-width:98%; height:auto;}

#lowerbar-wrapper a img , #lowerbar-wrapper img { max-width:98%; height:auto;}

}

What is the Importance of max-width?

A mad-width Property which is set on 98% will proves that your Image is not exceeded 98% of the parent width container.If you will keep your mad-width property 100% than your images may overlap in parent container , so always keep 98%.
