pic size limits

Okay, what if your image is portrait?

If it's limited to 600 high, then a 3:2 image is going to be max 400 pixels wide. That's pretty low resolution, even for luddites.
 





I get frustrated with the scrolling every which way and then some fool see some need to quote one of those pic heavy threads so we see them again--why?

Im Ok with thumbnails under the post- click if you want larger-

No. I neg'd you for the way you said it. Anyone with a brain stem can see the way you said it (with the pivotal word of the post being bi***ual) was to make some kind of point, as if there even is one. Don't try and pretend that it isn't; I wasn't born yesterday.

I've deleted my post above ^ because I'd probably get banned for it but the intolerant and childish attitudes towards him have never gone away (which is a shame) and it's probably why he doesn't come here much any more. Like I said in my original post... for such a technology forward forum there are an awful lot of ass backward people here.

I'm going now, it's Friday evening and life's too short for this poo poo!

Apparently you were born yesterday, or maybe you just don't speak good English. I have never had intolerant or childish attitudes toward him or toward people who are bi***ual. I know some people here did but not me. It is you who are making a big issue out of it and turning it into something very negative.

One thing you could do sometimes is in addition to the 800x600 images you could also post links to the full size images so people can view them if they want to.



That's right and if it's linked in to a post from somewhere else on the net like an image hosting site then it will show as whatever size it is. I use Photobucket for all the images I post, it has a built in editor and is easy to resize your photos so I would recommend that, they give you enough space for free and you can buy more if you want.

For those who don't use a tablet yet and don't know what the issue is here I will explain. On your laptop or windows computer a thread will display normally and you get to the huge photo, you then slide your screen back and forth to view the whole thing. Well some tablets now have higher resolution than your computer screen and photos look better and have more detail than when viewed on your computer screen, so those huge photos can be viewed all on screen without having to slide the screen back and forth. The problem is that you get the opposite problem you get on the windows computer. When I view a thread with one or more huge photos those photos show perfectly all on screen while the rest of the thread shrinks to a tiny size!

More and more people will be using tablets instead of laptops and plenty of people can't read fine print and may also not have their computer screens set to the highest resolution, so everyone please keep this in mind when posting photos.

In addition to Pi's reply sometimes the pictures are so large Viewing them you have to scroll left and right up down and only see a small section of the photo at a time. it's so big it's very difficult to work with
This thread below is a good example of how its near impossible to read the text due to the giant jpeg.

Also worth adding that more and more people browse from their phones... While I don't see myself using a tablet aside from traveling, I do use my phone for short visits online all the time.

As of late I prefer Imgur.com for hosting.

You're right nw, those pics are fine on my phone, and huge on my tablet. For some reason, it seems to be just tablets that are affected.

true it would be nice if it auto resized the pics
