We have released some new updates to Imgen, our image generator component for Joomla. This component allows you to dynamically resize and compress your site images, and is available with plugins to add a watermark, and to apply dynamic resizing to all your article images, and to restrict image viewing to chosen user groups.

In our latest release the image resizer plugin can now include "lazy loading", so that images are only loaded when they are scrolled into view, further speeding up page loading. The release also includes some bug fixes to the watermark and image restriction plugin.

Both the component and the plugins are free to download, you can download them here.
