Does the Spark code (I'm going to assume is all 'under the hood', something we cannot tweak even after we download a finished 'Page' project we develop on the Cloud) create 'media queries' – *resolution-specific media queries*? That would be SO phenomenally terrific Adobe. Really.

Yeah, how about support for this Adobe?! I found that by uploading, say, a "4x" version of something I want to use as a cover photo on fb THEIR System scales it PRECISELY and the image looks MUCH NICER on a hidpi/Retina display.
Let's say we want to use an image 1200x800 (a "professional" photography page being designed) and we are uploading FROM our 'Local' source (our desktop, laptop)...
And then let's say we create a ƒ SPECIFICALLY set up for images related to the 'Page' project we are working on... Might we not FIRST create an "...@2x" or "...-2x" version, OPTIMIZE to make it "small" as possible while maintaining great detail (80%, 60%, 45%, whatever), Save to that ƒ, THEN down-size the image by half *and when optimizing a second time* likely make different compression settings as a JPEG file – Saving As "...@1x" or "...-2x".
Then, along with all the other images saved this way (+ whatever SVG images we want to use in our design) ALL in one ƒ for our project... Wouldn't 'Spark' "know" where all that data is on our "local disk" and be able to call up the appropriate image file based upon the appliance browser "talking to" the code generated by Spark when the page goes live?
Might something LIKE THAT be possible?
By reading other forum users' experience with Spark 'Pages' I'm thinkin' "Why bother killing ANOTHER Productive Day with another Adobe product foisted upon us as "Professional" software when (as I found with MUSE the several times I thought I'd be able to create something I wanted to – not at all 'on the bleeding edge', just pages that didn't look like the standard drag-and-drop templates that make "Web Designers" lives oh-so-E-Z-P-Z – and finding it all falls apart in the end) Spark sounds like it doesn't come close to delivering. (Please, NOTE that I have browsed through a number of the example pages Adobe has posted and – especially on my 27" 5k iMac – the photos there look [as Luke, Richard and others report here] B L U R R Y. Great Find though, 'Catheyc'; perhaps your discovery is a potential work-around till we find Adobe has at last released software that delivers, not beta-ware in sheeps' clothing.)
WHY, if PS allows us to export images as '1x', '2x', '3x' versions can't Spark 'Pages' shuffle-in the appropriate photo (by way of media queries) so that when we/others preview after export our designs look as we intended – ESPECIALLY when we spend so much time optimizing for '3x' vs '2x' vs '1x' and the reality of content download time using mobile?! (This is why I ALWAYS take the extra time to tweak the optimization in the “Save For Web (Legacy)” workspace rather than the current E-Z-P-Z “Export As” setup.)
