Abstract: The number of connections and/or requests needed to obtain or provide image content in an electronic environment can be reduced by dy-namically composing the content when needed to serve a request. In a case where a large number of images are to be transmitted across a network, the images can be determined at the time of the request for transmission and can be composed into a single, master image. Positional information for the images can be stored and sent with the master image to a device requesting the transmission. Using the posi-tional information with dimensional information for the images, the device is able to use an application such as cascading style sheets (CSS) sprites to ex-tract each of the plurality of images, thus obtaining all the images using a single request and single con-nection. Multiple master images can be used if ap-propriate.
