wp_get_attachment_image_src size & custom size

wp_get_attachment_image_src() accepts built-in sizes such as thumbnail, medium, large or full.

// copied from the Codex

if ( function_exists( 'add_image_size' ) ) {
    add_image_size( 'category-thumb', 300, 9999 ); //300 pixels wide (and unlimited height)
    add_image_size( 'homepage-thumb', 220, 180, true ); //(cropped)
}

$image_attributes = wp_get_attachment_image_src( 28, 'category-thumb' );
var_dump($image_attributes);

You will notice that the image returned is (an appromixation of) 300x9999-- that is 300 wide by whatever height scales correctly.
