not img_thumbing large images should be a bannable offense.
75 replies, posted
Hello facepunch.
I rarely make GD threads, but I think this one is good.
A large amount of people who have absolutely no sense at all like to post HUGE images without img_thumb'n them. No one seems to care when other people say to img_thumb'n them.
Reasons why it should be bannable:
-It's annoying when there is this HUGE image that you can't even see because it's so big.
- people LOVE to quote large images without image thumbing them, further making matters worse.
- The mapping section has this "Ban for quoting img instead of img_thumb"
Thank you for reading, and please vote accordingly to your stance.

Hey guys.
I am mostly talking about in threads like this

Who the fuck has a 4k X 3k pixel monitor?
No, most people in this day and age have big monitors and internet that's faster than 2mb/s
We should have media tagged images back, they were useful

Oh man. I forgot about media tags. I should have added an option.

[img_thumb] does not make images load faster, since it's not making the [B]file size[/B] smaller.
I'd rather have media tags back instead.
Get a bigger monitor. And a faster connection.
Screw img_thumb, bring back media tags

Sorry that not everyone can be like you and can afford a fancy monitor.

fuck you i'm on a laptop and have 1mb :saddowns:
But I agree that media tags should be brought back.
My reason is the very reason that garry gave when he removed media tags.

Good example of the need for img_thumb
and yes, we need media tagged images back
Not very much people have 4000x3000+ resolutions :rolleyes:

That's only if you quote images, not post them yourself.

Quoting [img] tags should turn them into [img_thumb].

You can get a greasemonkey script that automatically img_thumbs quoted images

This would be a viable solution. I believe offline made the script that a majority of the mapping section uses now that does this.
Thanks ashxu

But it's sure annoying when you try to load a thread and have to wait for all the images to load before you can start navigating the page.
This matter would be vanished if we had Img Tags back... :/
And no, it should not be bannable, period.

If we didn't have image tags how do we post images???
img_thumb is only fun in OIFY
Voted no because img_thumb doesn't make it load faster.
Media tags for images!

And are you going to give everyone the money to buy a new desk and monitor?

No just monitor.
[editline]11:59AM[/editline]
It should auto thumb in quotes. Which I think it used too.

Exactly my point. People think they can just say "hurr durr get new monitor!!!!". Why don't the people who said that buy people like me a new 1080P monitor?

Wait a second--
What kind of display do you have? I own a 19" wide display and I don't really mind big images, and as for the bandwidth, either just suck it up or pay more $$$ for a better Internet connection
17"
