An annoying niggle

Andyd358 · 5th February 2011, 21:57

I know this might sound petty but it been recently doing my nut in.
I read the forums a lot on my phone (HTC Hero) and it bugges the life out of mr when people quote somene who has posted a load of photos in the post. This means that the pages end up taking an age to download due to repetition of the photos. Please there is no need to do it.

I know i sound like a right whinging........ (its been a long day)

Hi Andy, i recently got an HTC desire, while its a serious piece of kit for a non tech minded person like myself, i gave up too, i just wait while i get home now so can use lappy! As much as i embrace new things, far easier and less frustrating when i turn lappy on.

Its best if posting photos to have them resized to 600 wide or 800 wide max (no bigger for a 15" monitor) that way it would help photos fit on the page when members are viewing them and also stop longer downloading.

800 wide NO BIGGER!

I agree with you on this, there is nothing more annoying than a reply post including the original post which is photo heavy. Just refer to it in your post if absolutely necessary.
