Poll: Your Preference: Thumbnails or Full Size Pics?
I've seen some miscellaneous commentary about this one. The images uploaded as attachments post as thumbnails, clickable for a larger version. Some hosting services can provide this as well, but some of us have always posted full size pics.
I know what I like to see in a thread, but I'd like to get a feel for the percentages of others. Perhaps it boils down to how much bandwidth you have, but maybe not. What do you like to see? Tthanks! Rick Last edited by rlwhitt; 07-19-2007 at 11:52 AM.

I like the thumbnails. Sometimes a person forgets to resize the pictures that they post in a thread so the thread gets stretched out horizontally because of the oversized pictures. It is more of an annoyance factor than a speed factor since I have a broadband connection.

Here's my first ignorant question for the new site. Is it possible to allow each user to configure this? I could choose full size and our dial up friends could choose thumbnails?

good question Carl,
I don't remember ever seeing that feature in the settings, at least for this Forum OS. I will try to delve into it this evening, and maybe Jason can help too. Rick

although I prefer to have them full size I still think it should be up to author on how they like to show them. Each option has its place.
For a tutorial type thread or something trying to show step by step then inline is better. If I just completed a build and want to show a bazillion pics then thumbnails are better. :D I have not been able to find a way to do inline aside from hosting them myself but like I said before, I havent looked much either Chris

I'm definately a full size pic man, as long as people size the pics so they aren't bigger than the screen. I find it irritating to have to click on thumb nails. Looks like I'm in the minority ....... yet again :p
