Title: Do we want pictures in quotes
Post by: TheBoy on 04 August 2008, 08:56:28
Since the last software drop, any quoting of a previous post that had images in would result in the images being redisplayed in the quote.

Is that what we want?

I don't see any reason to have pictures in quotes. Seen them once...

No thankyou!

Adds nothing to the thread and goodness-knows what it must do to the OOF`ers whom browse via mobile-devices or dial-up connection.

Mobile devices should be caching similar to desktop browsers, so shouldn't affect bandwidth much.  As a mobile surfer myself, its a PITA to keep scrolling through images though.

in what way ????

Before the upgrade, quotes included links, not pictures.

Now, the url's are resolved, taking up A LOT of screen space, and makes much more scolling

See how the image appears in your quote, whereas before, only the link to image appeared in quote.
