Indeed. And even for those who do care it is just too much work to cut/edit every picture.

--- Quote ---But, speaking of laziness, it may well be more effort to introduce such a feature to the forum software, than it is to provide for the server and connections, and if most users aren't complaining about load times or poorly formatted images who cares, right?

Hence my suggestion to use a service like Flickr which can serve images in many sizes. Perhaps Dave & Gnif can setup something similar on the EEVblog server.

Until the service purges all its old pictures.
Then you have a bunch of useless discussions.  Which, we already have!  Missing circuits, etc.
NiHaoMike:
Isn't it possible to have a basic image editor in the browser? Just the basic crop, scale, and rotate would be enough for the majority who would use it, while those more advanced would probably already be using something like GIMP.

To users with modern 4K screens, 640 or 800 pix images are practically thumbnails. I think things are fine as they are.

Well you can easily zoom in, which doesn't cost any extra bandwidth.
