# Make images responsive with the new image\_tag filter

Adding [responsive images](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/HTML/Multimedia_and_embedding/Responsive_images) to your theme is now easier with the new `image_tag` filter. The filter outputs a responsive HTML `img` tag by default, allows adding arbitrary HTML attributes, and supports [preloading](https://shopify.dev/themes/best-practices/performance#preload-key-resources-defer-or-avoid-loading-others).
