Number 2

Prize: One book of choice by Packt		 Web pages with many images force the browser to make too many requests to the Web server.

An alternative solution to reduce the number of requests consists in assembling several images into a single sprite image. Then use CSS styles that define how to clip each image from the sprite and use the image in the Web pages.

This class implements a PHP solution to assemble sprite from a list of images and the necessary CSS styles to use the images in the pages.
