Abstract

A system and method for scaling images to fit a screen on a mobile device. The images are scaled according to a non-linear scale factor to increase usability of the images. The larger images are scaled more aggressively than the smaller images according to the non-linear scale factor such that the images are viewed at a maximum size while fitting the images within the screen width.
