Rendering Responsive Images Using Bootstrap

The .img-responsive bootstrap class provides the ability to control the image rendering as per the available space and screen size. Ideally except images, most of the other HTML elements respond to the target device automatically when you include the Bootstrap CSS in your pages. However in case of images, you need to add this class manually.

Following are the <img> classes which can be used to style any image.

.img-rounded: Adds round corners to an image
.img-circle: Shapes the images to a circle
.img-thumbnail: Shapes the images to a thumbnail
.img-responsive: makes an image responsive. The image will scale nicely to the parent element.

Example
