# okay
you probably deserve it more than we do.

We like to suck grannies and shit.

# that sounds like wholesome family fun
but I'm curious - what part of the granny do you suck, exactly?

*wants this as his random quote*

I'm afraid that I am most stupid (And slightly drunk) - masking filesize? I just.. I just linked to a pickacher! OH GOD, IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN

# Hehehe
Ignore the 'masking' nonsense, I was being a silly paranoid. Nice sketchwork.

Try to keep any linked pics under 50kb though if possible.

Hello new person. Please read our FAQ. Cheers.

# Honestly I don't think people should be so tight on the 50kb limit

# Me too
In a test it just took me 5 seconds to optimize that image
down to 50kb with no significant discernible loss of quality

# so what?
(I helped save b3ta! Sexy Picard 2000, Mon 18 Dec 2006, 19:05, archived)
# *sigh*
"It's about using optimisation to make your images no larger than they need to be"

That image is probably twice as big as it needs to be, so I decided it warranted a friendly reminder, via the FAQ, to optimize when possible.
(I helped save b3ta! D'artisan is lesser spotted, lesser spotted like a Tiger, Mon 18 Dec 2006, 19:09, archived)
# naturally, I understand that
I just don't give a shit. Really. "Twice as big as it needs to be" doesn't make me suddenly step back and give a shit, either.

The "reminder" posts, friendly as they may be, are easily as annoying as an image that could be a little smaller. IT DOESN'T BLOODY MATTER. If it's 500k or something, then let's talk about it.

(I helped save b3ta! bennyhillslovechild, Mon 18 Dec 2006, 19:18, archived)
# So don't give a shit then
You're making a mountain out of a fucking molehill, and completely ignoring non broadband users. A page of 25 50k posts is about 1 meg. A page of 25 100kb posts is about 2 meg. That's not an insignificant difference. If Rob or whoever deems that now is the time to move on as more people have broadband then that's fine, and the FAQ can be updated (that's not exactly difficult). Until such a time it's only fair to try to keep people within the guidelines.

# Non broadband users are a tiny fraction of the board
besides which, if you're going to come to B3ta you should expect long loads exactly the same way you'd expect them with flash cartoon sites.
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Mon 18 Dec 2006, 19:30, archived)
# Then what you should be complaining about
is that they've not updated the FAQ, not that people are trying to abide by it and encourage abiding by it.
(I helped save b3ta! D'artisan is lesser spotted, lesser spotted like a Tiger, Mon 18 Dec 2006, 19:31, archived)
# Why not just stop trying to be an enforcer and leave it to the mods on such matters?
50k isn't a bad guidline. Hell, we've covered why.
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Mon 18 Dec 2006, 19:33, archived)
# Yeah you know, you're right
There's no reason whatsoever for there actually to be a specific code for general users to trigger
when they feel a user ought be reminded of the guidance of the FAQ....

# don't forget the server load
b3ta is already painfully slow at some times

and what's so bad about trying to optimize? it's normally about two clicks in ps and a minute on the clock with most pictures.
if the picture is not that easily compressable or if it would suffer from severe quality loss due to compression, that's another matter
(I helped save b3ta! pzyko Query failed., Mon 18 Dec 2006, 19:39, archived)
# Damn right
Here's to good compression practice!

# How on *earth* do larger images NOT HOSTED ON THIS SERVER
effect the strain on it directly? In fact, it follows logically that the longer externally hosted images take to load the less strain there is on the board.
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Mon 18 Dec 2006, 20:47, archived)
# Well it's a tricky one isn't it
but as it was about twice the guidance size I thought it warranted a friendly little reminder.

# Well
Regardless, apologies. We just linked straight from the site, because we are filthy little shits who are too lazy to optimise especially for the b3ta board.

If it helps though, we love you very much, and offer you sticky, sickly treats from our stockings.

..Our RAPE-stockings.
