Huge Screenshots and Images Are Annoying
Over the past few months I've noticed an upswing in the number of large, 1.5 megabyte or larger screen-shots being posted to the forum in their original size. I generally try to post an image as a thumbnail if it's more than 600 pixels wide or if it's file-size is more than 150 kb.
Although I have a fairly fast internet connection, there are plenty of people out there that don't, and either way, these 1600-pixel wide, 2-megabyte PNG files that keep springing up are pretty darned obnoxious. Would anyone really be upset if an upper limit was placed on the maximum size of non-thumbnailed images? It's something that's really started to grate on my nerves, and I know I'm not the only one.
