Cmon! This is dumb! I was gonna post some pics, then i thought....naah cause the clicky thing is dumb. If your still on dial up you shouldnt be cruising the forum cause dialup is for lepers. If the post says *pics inside* then be prepared! Now it looks like a page load malfunction. Just my monthly rant... All my pics are on a photobucket account so its no skin off Cliffs nose if the pics are linked. PHOTOBUCKET IS FREE FOR EVERYONE SO THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR PEOPLE NOT TO LINK THEIR OWN PICS. ------------------

If you want to get rid of the click here icon, make the picture smaller. The fact that all areas do not have broadband access does not make those that are on dial up lepers.

Well, I have dialup and I dont have a problem with it. 1. I get it for free, usually at 52k bps.
2. If your in that big a hurry to get to every page, you need a life.
3. Had RR for 1 week till I called them to come take it back out.

It's even dumber if you can't be bothered getting your pics under 100K. It's even dumber if you think having an animation of someone's boobs in your sig is cool. It's even dumber if you think offering people a choice wether or not they want to load an image over 100K is dumb.

At the risk of voicing with the minority... It does kinda bother me as well. A lot of times it happens in build up threads, and you end up having to click on 20 different images to see what's going on. Being the lazy type, maybe there should be an option to click in your cookie preferences - "Dialup/don't show pics over 100k or Fast/show all pics"... Just an idea.

Actually! I like the feature. The larger file size pictures open up on a new window, is something I like. I like viewing pictures on white backgrounds for some reason.

C'mon guys...
Microsoft Paint is probably on 90% of every computer in the world.
It takes about 15 seconds to resize a pic. Jeesh.
Now if it's something that NEEDS all that detail and resolution, like a how-to thread, I don't mind clicking the "clicky thing".
