23,289 PointsIt is good practice to use different background images for different screen sizes?
The same image but in different sizes to adjust properly to different screen sizes.
I know there is background-size: cover, but sometimes if the image is too big, it doesn't fit well on small screens.

29,854 PointsI would give Adaptive Images a try.
"Adaptive Images detects your visitor's screen size and automatically creates, caches, and delivers device appropriate re-scaled versions of your web page's embedded HTML images. No mark-up changes needed. It is intended for use with Responsive Designs and to be combined with Fluid Image techniques."
Not exactly what your looking for but the concept of delivering different images based on the screen size is there. Maybe with some googling you could find an exact solution or try modifying the adaptive images?
