Summary:In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method retrieves a vector image from a device that is a target of an image request. The vector image illustrates at least a portion of the device. A first image style identifier, associated with a first set of style attributes for the vector image, is located within the vector image. A search is conducted for a second set of style attributes for the vector image, the second set of style attributes being stored apart from the vector image, and the second set of style attributes being given a higher priority than the first set of style attributes for the vector image. If the second set of style attributes is found, the vector image is caused to be formatted using at least the second set of style attributes. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
