- * Provide module-based image styles for reuse throughout Drupal.
- *
- * This hook allows your module to provide image styles. This may be useful if
- * you require images to fit within exact dimensions. Note that you should
- * attempt to re-use the default styles provided by Image module whenever
- * possible, rather than creating image styles that are specific to your module.
- * Image provides the styles "thumbnail", "medium", and "large".
- *
- * You may use this hook to more easily manage your site's changes by moving
- * existing image styles from the database to a custom module. Note however that
- * moving image styles to code instead storing them in the database has a
- * negligible effect on performance, since custom image styles are loaded
- * from the database all at once. Even if all styles are pulled from modules,
- * Image module will still perform the same queries to check the database for
- * any custom styles.
- *
- * @return
- *   An array of image styles, keyed by the style name.
