Issue with serving image files

[varunkumar]

Image files served with grunt-express look distorted. Any known issues?

Node - v0.10.6
NPM - 1.2.21

The same file looks alright when served from yeoman's internal express.

@varunkumar I am unaware of such issue. Would you provide more detail?

It looks like an issue with the livereload module. Livereload script gets injected into binary files as well. I have installed the livereload module from the git repo (not from npm. To solve gruntjs/grunt-contrib-livereload#26). When I tried with your fork of livereload, the image files are rendered properly. However, the livereload script is not getting injected into template files (hello.dust in your example).

@varunkumar do you think this is just a livereload issue? The way livereload works is to append scripts at end of a response (the livereload script tag), like so: https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-livereload/blob/master/lib/utils.js#L81 And it should be doing it for html files only. I guess there is a bug with it so it would also append the script tag at end of an image file (which itself is binary), which causes distortion. I suggest you file a bug with livereload plugin itself.
