• not img_thumbing large images should be a bannable offense.

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. Edit: Hey guys. I am mostly talking about in threads like this [url]http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=963175[/url] 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
[QUOTE=Kai-ryuu;23055156]We should have media tags back instead[/QUOTE] Oh man. I forgot about media tags. I should have added an option.

Get a bigger monitor. And a faster connection.
Screw img_thumb, bring back media tags
[QUOTE=Marlamin;23055174] I'd rather have media tags back instead.[/QUOTE] Agree'd
[QUOTE=GammaFive;23055187]Get a bigger monitor. And a faster connection.[/QUOTE] Sorry that not everyone can be like you and can afford a fancy monitor.
Doesent the forum make the thumbs itself? i remembe i quoted an image once and it made it to img_thumbs when i pressed reply button.
[QUOTE=radioactive;23055152]No, most people in this day and age have big monitors and internet that's faster than 2mb/s[/QUOTE] 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.
[QUOTE=Fusilero1;23055188]Screw img_thumb, bring back media tags[/QUOTE] this a thousand times they were the most useful

[QUOTE=TheForeigner;23055201]Doesent the forum make the thumbs itself? i remembe i quoted an image once and it made it to img_thumbs when i pressed reply button.[/QUOTE] That's only if you quote images, not post them yourself.
[QUOTE=gerbile4;23055145]- people LOVE to quote large images without image thumbing them, further making matters worse.[/QUOTE] Quoting [img] tags should turn them into [img_thumb].

[QUOTE=Maurice;23055249]Quoting [img_thumb] tags should turn them into [img_thumb].[/QUOTE] 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

[QUOTE=radioactive;23055152]No, most people in this day and age have big monitors and internet that's faster than 2mb/s[/QUOTE] 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.
[QUOTE=Pretiacruento;23055332]This matter would be vanished if we had Img Tags back... :/ And no, it should not be bannable, period.[/QUOTE] 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!
[QUOTE=GammaFive;23055187]Get a bigger monitor. And a faster connection.[/QUOTE] And are you going to give everyone the money to buy a new desk and monitor?
[QUOTE=markg06;23055497]And are you going to give everyone the money to buy a new desk and monitor?[/QUOTE] No just monitor. [editline]11:59AM[/editline] It should auto thumb in quotes. Which I think it used too.
[QUOTE=markg06;23055497]And are you going to give everyone the money to buy a new desk and monitor?[/QUOTE] 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?

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" :saddowns: [sp]Laptop lol[/sp]
