These ultra-wide posts are beginning to annoy me a bit
So no offense to you or Clay (who also seems to enjoy making them over 500k in an attempt to needle the Nazis) but I'm going to be hiding them more or less by default.

The thumbnail version
just looks like a really rubbish cock. You could always thumbnail to 800 pixels wide, that would keep even people on 1280x800 displays happy. And, frankly, fuck everyone else.

One advantage with the wide ones
If you're catching up with /board, and scroll down to the bottom of the page while it's loading, you get that annoying thing as images above you appear and make the bit you're trying to look at move down. That's much worse if the pics are tall.

killjoy! ;)
but I always keep my file sizes down by slicing them horizontally (that last one I did was made of 5 pics, each around 100K)
you can scroll past em faster and most importantly it also makes them FP proof

This is true
but it means that when I'm scrolling the screen often goes skewing off to the right and I have to scroll it back to the left again. That's the only actual problem I have with them, so my aim in the future is to look at them and then hide them. :)

Go ahead, but don't count on me not clicking "Hide". So long as it's all understood it's nothing personal.
