Indeed, normal pixel density images will look blurry on a high-density
monitor. (“4K” does not directly mean “HiDPI”; depends on the monitor
diagonal. Also, DPI alone is not a meaningful metric; “DPI at normal
viewing distance” or “device pixels per degree” are better.)
To see the image as your HiDPI(-at-normal-distance) users will, zoom
to 200% in your browser and optionally double the viewing distance.
To counter this problem, you have three options, in decreasing order
of preference:
* Use vector graphics (SVG) where possible. Good for text and line art
if you don’t have to support Internet Explorer 8. Additional advantage
is that file size decreases.
* Provide the image at twice the width and twice the height and scale
to normal pixel width using CSS. Good for photos because the above
solution is not possible; somewhat wasteful for text and line art.
* Add a CSS rule that switches to nearest-neighbor scaling:
image-rendering: -moz-crisp-edges for Firefox or image-rendering:
pixelated for Webkit-based browsers. Good for pixel art and
screenshots, but browser support is non-uniform.
