The number of devices connected to the Internet using mobile devices is increasing every day. Charge for mobile data over 3G and 4G networks is high in some countries which pushes users to browse the Internet through text-only service.

This research formats the images on web pages in a method that makes images transferred over text-only networks. This allows users with low income or slow connections to surf text service over the internet with images supported.
