same image, different sizes: with picasso

I have an image that is to be displayed in about four different sizes depending on which activity the user is viewing. For instance a ListView will show one size, a GridView will show one size, a slide show will show one size, etc. If I use Picasso, will it download the image once or will it download one image for each size? Of course, I am taking into account that Picasso caches images (which is what I want). The key point here is that I have a single url for the image since it is one image.

Note that to keep the example simple, I mention one image. But of course I am talking about a set of images each of which needs to be manipulated as mentioned in the paragraph above.

Once for the original size as you get from the URL.

You can use the resize() method to resize the image and the original image would still stay at full resolution. I have done that in my app where I displayed a 600x600 image at 150x150 in a thumbnail and in full resolution later.
