Pictures in posts

Recommended Posts

Guys, I know that we now have auto-resize as a feature when someone posts, but there is nothing more obnoxious than someone posting a 2344x1532 picture, then having to have every reader load that monstrosity.

I understand that people have bigger resolutions nowadays, but it lags the forum down when people are just looking to read.

I'm serious - I will suspend the next person who does it.

If you don't know how to resize, do not put image tags on the link, and warn users that they are indeed big pictures.

Thank you -

you can also resize in programs such as Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, CorelDRAW, Paint Shop Pro and other photo applications (not sure about the powerhouse "Microsoft Paint" tho) :D

related topic: when quoting posts with pics, pls edit out the pics. very frustrating to load the same (sometimes large) pic 8 times in 9 posts.

this helps the mods keep the server costs low enough to provide this site for free (which we all benefit from) so helping out in these ways is really easy.

While most people have a high speed connection at home/work/school/etc... Please keep in mind that more and more people are using mobile connections when browsing this site.
