# Surprising graffiti
Was on my Friday beer break at work and was surprised and amused by this


I have no idea why someone would 'tag' Sid James on a wall.

edit - smaller size pic, apologies

Thank you
edit : cheers for that :) now visit the myspace link and tell them you like their work and send them some crayons and buy me some cake
Thank you

# Did it used
to be 250kb?

When and why did it change?
(carlospresents... TODMORDEN, Tue 25 Sep 2007, 20:02, archived)
# 250Kb is for animations
static images is ~ 60Kb

# has it always been that?
I'm sure it hasn't
(carlospresents... TODMORDEN, Tue 25 Sep 2007, 20:03, archived)
# yes it used to be much bigger
but seeing as bandwidth has become increasingly expensive and download speeds so much slower, themods thought they'd help people out by setting it to around 50k

# Seems Odd
as in the olden day it took ages to load 250kb, now it doesn't, yet people get told off for uploading big ones (fnaar!)

Was it the board Nazis who decided this, just so they could say, 'Hello Newbie Blah Nazi blah blah'?

# welcome to these parts, new fella
a small request, if possible, but could you perhaps get still images to around the 50k mark if possible.
As great as that Grafitti is, it's a tad big for recommended guidelines in these 'ere parts. Cheers in advance, fella, and welcome again :)

EDIT: Well done, fella :) good show!

# this is far too big
images shouldn't be bigger than 50k

/nice find though :)

Edit: hurray for fixing the image size, welcome to b3ta!

# and sadly, it's fast becoming tomorrow as well
now that providers have cottoned on to how much bandwidth people use if given free reign.

mind you, that being said, there is one /boarder out in S. Africa who has to pay an
horrendous amount per month for b/band and only gets around 1GB/month bandwidth for it,
so it's really all down to being considerate

# ouch
that's painful.

I used to have a cap of 30gb down, 15GB down up - but that ended 2 years ago.

No limits for me anymore.

In any case, I don't think I could live with 56k(I still remember getting porn from the interweb as a kid, and just waiting for the pics to load bit, by bit, by bit.)

as *cough*me*cough* someone went over the limit every month by 26gb.

# aye
tis an easy limit to cross when you're not paying attention

I used to be able to buy 5 gb "packs" of extra download capacity whenever I went over. Meh.

# capped broadband and people veiwing B3ta on their phones
make pointlessly massive pictures annoying.

The 50k and 250k rule isn't exactly Chinese water torture. And if you're precious about your artwork just post a thumbnail to a massive version.

# I have absolutely no complaints about the rule
I think that even with broadband, 50k/250k is a nice size
