Otherwise, you'll be deferring a lot of load to dynamically create images on each request, leading to a slow loading page; Rather than using the benefits of a CDN: fast, smartly cached requests, leading to fast pages. | |

| Feb 6, 2014 at 13:58 | comment | added | stevesweets | You can resize the image on upload, so the correct size is uploaded to s3, would that be sufficient? | |

| Feb 6, 2014 at 11:32 | comment | added | Valerio | I understand.. anyway i'm looking for a way to do the same thing on Amazon S3. There must be an API that works with url parameters.. (i hope so!) | |
