There is no reason to copy the pictures that are already in the thread. And to boot multiple times. Have some thought to us on 56k. :angry:

I was on 56k not so long ago for a very long time and I will say I know how you feel but their is no rule against it
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 <_<

The Image Resize makes the image appear smaller in the thread, but the filesize is still the same.Quote:

Also, that last sentence wasn't appreciated. I'm on 56k, and some people can't afford broadband, is that a problem?

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?
I hate titrations :angry:Quote:

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.
actully no that wouldn't be an easy solution i'm sure he wants to view some pics on this boardQuote:

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

@ 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?
no
he can't have both
either stop bitching or turn off pic's
simple

what's your point? :blink:
Just a suggestion - chill out.
I was on 56k not that long ago. had pictures off, and when there were screen shots and stuff I wanted to see then would enable it.
exactly.... I was a 56 K user earlier.. but i didnt surf much minding the telephone bills.... but since last 3 years.. i m a cablenet user... so i Surf a lot n have complete freedom...Quote:

So acc to me, 56 K 'ers should only check emails and stuff... so that u don't waste ur money downloadin pios n movies.
It sucks being a 56ker, but when you are a 56ker, you learn to have patience......
I don't agree, some people post large pictures, for no other reason than, they are too lazy to resize them. Why should people on dial-up suffer because of them?Quote:

That equation can also work the other way around too, such as, Why should people on high speed internet suffer because of 56k users? ;)
You are too reasonable callum. I ascribe worse motives. ;)
Maybe we should have a forum especially for 56k'ers...? :)
The slow lane.Quote:

We here in New Zealand are being ripped off by Telecom who charge a lot more for broadband and put a low cap on it as well, so the broadband takeup in NZ is very low - only about 10%.
I too find it a bit frustrating to wait for pages to load when you are in a hurry to post a reply, it sometimes puts you off reading threads.
Could not they make it an otpion to view the pics ?

download mozilla firefox 0.8, then get some extensions such as 'adblock'. you can basically delete any image on a page from ever showing up ever again.Quote:

There's nothing wrong with quoting an image, I thought that once you had the image in your cache you didn't download it again if you saw it again so it wouldn't make a difference if it was quoted or not so there is no arguement... :lol:Quote:
