Well they're all 100x100 max size now because I felt like playing on your anger. Which btw, is not valid anger at all. I think you guys need to grow up, and stop being lazy. 1440x900 is not by any means a small size. 90% of the pictures posted since I put the new rule in, have been resized too small, and under the max limit. Seriously, all you do is inconvenience people posting anything bigger than 1440x900. Nobody wants to look at pictures bigger than that, because they gotta scroll sideways. I have my tv hooked up right now, how about I go take 10 screenshots of 2560x1600 in png format, then tell me you don't mind large screenshots?

Honestly, They will look great on my 40". Go for it. And im not being a smartass either. I think you should keep the 100x100, and let us bump up the pics per post to like 8-10.

i'm not angry i'm just saying i have bigger things to worry about other than a screenshot thread not loading fast....there's more important things out there....don't sweat the small stuff...having a heart attack brings about a different way of looking at things i guess

Well, it's not so much the length and height that's bothersome. It's the large amount of file sizes. Some people can post huge screens, and they'd load fine.
A 1440x900 screenshot in png is almost 4MB in size. When converted to the highest quality with photoshop, it's just short of 1MB. There is 20 posts in a page. -4 for comments. The rest are screenshots of the largest allowed size or just short of that. So we'll say 700kb per screenshot. we'll also say an average of 4 screens per post, to even out the amount of people who post the max amount or less. 4x16=6.4 MB. This doesn't take alot of internet speed to load, and that resolution size is not bad. So wtf?

in a way i understand bro....but i just don't see why it should be such a big deal...there's just so much more to life to worry about and get upset at than web pages that load slow....it's things like that that led to my heart attack

If we were to do that then there's no point of any image rules in the first place. What you're gaining in image/file size reductions you'd be losing again with the amount of them.
Nothing can please everyone, it's a matter of pleasing the majority and have a few others not liking it or finding it stupid along the way OR letting a few have the privilege and the majority find it a thorn in their ass. I could be sitting here banging my head on the desk sometimes at the sheer length of time it takes to load a page of screenshots, and the fact that I can't even start looking before they're all loaded because the page jumps about and does my fucking head in.
"We've advanced from that stage" or "we're supposed to be moving ahead" or "get a faster internet connection"... you morons don't see the bigger picture. Don't you think we would if we could? It's either a matter of not being able to afford it or physically not being able to because of where you live (like me for example). It's a public forum that anyone around the world can view, not just North America who can get, and afford to get, high speed internet and then laugh at everyone who doesn't. Deal with it.
The world of websites needs to cater for the majority not the minority. If you don't understand how it works then it's not our problem.

Yeah that's right luke. And that's what I am trying to say exactly. Gentleman and obviously ladies. What it all boils down to is these guys are the admins and what they say goes. It doesnt matter if you like it or not. They run the forum and they decide. It is our job as member to say o.k. Chris, Luke, Claus, or Aaron we will abide by your rules. Not to sit here and whine about it.

Hey Chris, can you set up a code that displays a different 10,000 x 10,000 pixel, 28.5mb BMP image every time I open this forum? Make it the new banner so that I have to scroll down 16 kilometres before I find anything useful. That would be ace, thanks.

I really think this new pic size is fine, alot of other forums require you to hide all pics in a spoiler bar so that people don't even have to load them if they don't want to. The real problem people are having here is dealing with rules. For so long this community has been the only place where you can do almost whatever you want. Now that people have to deal with a few simple rules, they are lazy.. U mad!? ;D

Can't even bullshit after a days work lol, oh well..miss the old days when it was laid back and nobody gived a damn about a screenshot size Why is it honestly this big of a freaking deal to you people? I'm kinda getting sick of seeing all the whining about this. Its 1440x900 for God's sake, its not like your being forced to show tiny ass freaking pics. And I'm sorry if it isn't my place to say this but I agree with Chris, if you don't like it then go to TruckPol or stop whining about it.
