Smaller images for crop page

[monsieurtanuki]

Problem

Currently, when the user wants to edit a picture, first we download the full version of the picture, and then we go to the crop page.
That is visible for the user, and that demands internet.
I believe the reason for that is that the previous crop tool zoomed the picture on the fly, like if you decide to make a small crop area, the image was zoomed so that the small crop area is displayed full screen. That's why we needed the best resolution: to get correct display when zoomed.
But we don't zoom anymore when we crop, with the new crop tool, we keep the full picture full screen.

Proposed solution

Perhaps we don't need the full picture and we would be better off with the 400 picture, at least on some devices - and perhaps for all of them. That would save us an annoying download step, and may make it possible to replace pictures when offline (no internet needed before taking the picture).

Can I work on this issue?

Hi @BhuvanAde!

For the moment it is just an idea, that hasn't met a lot of interest, functionally-wise.
Besides, I'm currently working on other more important issues on the same topic (#766 #2427), which may impact this issue and even its relevancy. Therefore we should put this issue on the shelf, at least code-wise.

Are there specific topics (technical or functional) you would like to work on?

[BhuvanAde]

I'm open for either of them.

@BhuvanAde Oh I meant I'm already working on those issues, and even closed one of them. I'm currently dealing with those product image new pages myself.

Following are other issues I planned to work on but haven't started yet, and that you may find interesting:

• Packaging components edition - Cursor is at top of 1st component when adding a 2nd component #3622
• User Preference for 'per 100g' vs 'per serving' toggle #3615
• Cosmetic issues with the new structured packagings page #3507
• Nutrition Facts Page: view jumps to empty Serving size field when clicking unit buttons #3436
• Add image unselect in the expanded view accessible from the carousel #2427

Thanks @monsieurtanuki I would love to start work on #3615 and #2427.
