Indeed I have very annoying memories of this era also. Having a user profile set to spoiler tags is a bit silly as those who have it would most likely be prone to look anyway. Although a user profile option to incase larger pictures as thubnails would be ok of course setting default to off...Originally Posted by Skizo

I don't understand a word of that.

I often get annoyed by pics that throw out my margins and end up adblocking them.
Rick's idea of automatically encasing images of dimensions larger than, say 900 pixels wide with spoiler tage is an excellent idea. The option to turn this off in profile is the icing on the cake.
Bawa's tumpoline idea might be good too. He may well mean the same as RealitY for all I know
This spoiler tag idea get's my vote

I dont see the point of the spoiler tags though as it hides the image. It would seem more piratical to make them into thumbnails since that cures the issue of distorting the thread. As youve mentioned havi this option the User CP is the icing on the cake so that members can choose what they want...

Sure, that idea works for me too.

Erm. Instead of using all this technical mumbo-jumbo and modify user profile and whatnot, why not use the dictatorial option and make it a rule to have pics no larger than a set size, like Skizo said.
How hard is it to resize a pic before posting it?
Even the people who post in the desktop thread are able to do it. I think.

That would be too much work for teh mods, especially lazy ones likeErm. Instead of using all this technical mumbo-jumbo and modify user profile and whatnot, why not use the dictatorial option and make it a rule to have pics no larger than a set size, like Skizo said.

It would prolly be better if it was automated. That way geptards in the desktop thread can't annoy me, even if they want to.

I think because we went that path once before and it didnt work out well.Erm. Instead of using all this technical mumbo-jumbo and modify user profile and whatnot, why not use the dictatorial option and make it a rule to have pics no larger than a set size, like Skizo said.

If you cant make everyone happy around here than you should probably just hide...

The optional selection if having thumbnails on sounds great to me.
dvhyt5er
the last :hate: "image resize" mffunction was set at 500pxl please not so small
at 800pxl - 900pxl much better
awaiting a "need anti-spam function" thread?

Maybe in teh user profile option you choose your resolution and that determines how big before the thumbnail kicks in?
Along with option for no thumbnail of course.
