    Post With Slider Thumbnail

    When it comes to responsive design, it’s not just about fluid images or adaptive layouts. It’s also about the responsive methodology behind the entire design process. In responsive design, we are creating responsive experiences, meaning that all design components need to be able to adapt to the environment in which they are displayed and have to interact with. This is why we create tables, navigation menus, videos and other design elements responsive as well. It just makes sense to consider each and every design component — including the image slider. Flexslider which has been created, developed and maintained by Tyler Smith and released for Smashing Magazine. Is used in this post.
