I don't really understand what you are talking about. Do you mean when a member quotes a picture? Because I thought it would just load it again from your cache no?

That's why there is a 'Image Resize' setting in place.

Try placing your hand in your pockets and paying a little extra for broadband. It can't be that more expensive where you live

umm no offense not everybody CAN just get dsl

for instance living in Australia only 25% of peopel can get it here for insane prices

and 64% of teh US still are on dial up 74% in the UK

statistics say

we don't all live in America where we can just ring up hey give me a #mb connection for $30 and have it turned on tomorrow

I'm paying $60 with a 16 gig cap a month just for 256/64 so life isn't just that easy in every place you live

Once your browser has downloaded the picture, even if they are quoted 5000 times it won't take any longer to load. They go into your temporary internet files for later viewing. If they don't its you thats made that configuration.

Or, the easy solution would be to go in to your board settings and say NO to viewing images etc.

Question: Would you want to hang around for 10 minutes waiting for those pics to download for the first time?

@ Cyril: - Disabling images means 56K users will miss out on a sizeable chunk of forum content.
Program and game screenshots for previews and troubleshooting, album covers, funny pics in the Lounge... all gone.
That's hardly fair, is it?
