How's about using Drupal Commerce for conference registration?
Responsive Images
Hi all
Would love to know what everyone is using to make images responsive? I've come across a few modules but none seem to have a decent installed base - so I'm thinking there is a module I haven't found yet as I assume loads of people would be using it.
See you tomorrow night

We used this in our first iteration of Birbl.com, and I've used it on other sites. Very nice solution, easy to set up and use.

Thanks Aaron
Also, Anthony I'm trying to remember what modules you used for the Google Maps presentation you did two months ago. I need to implement a similar feature on a website I'm developing at the moment.
Thanks
