# of images in a post reduced
I've reduced the # of images in a single post to 5.

Hopefully this will help the site run faster.

Everyone should be resizing their images before uploading them to icmag so the server doesn't have to resize them everytime they get viewed.

Thanks

it won't really help a whole lot.

i guess it helps the poster upload faster.

but if a poster has 15 images to put up, it still takes the same time to download....

As long as the server re sizes pictures most people are not going to bother doing it themselves.

This program is free and one off the easiest to use when it comes to re size and striping the META information of your pics , re sized pics are quicker to upload and hell my uploads get counted in my overall internet usage so why pay to upload a 4mb pic when you can re size it and bring it down to less than 200kb...hmm thats all
https://www.irfanview.com/
A little how to
open pic with irfanveiw
select Image (pulldown menu)
resize/resample ....enter
select the size you want..800 x 600 works for me
press OK
select file (pulldown menu)
select save as or save in original folder and follow prompts
EASY

Skip great work, I hope it helps some. I tried for months to promote this idea and bring the uploading issue forward by posting it in my signature "please help speed up our site by posting no more than three full size pix and the rest thumbnails in your threads"

I think everyone would help if they knew more about it Skip..thanks for posting DD

does this affect posts already made? like will threads i made where i got 20 picks in a post automatically get the pics deleted to 5? or is this for future reference only?

If by thumbnails you mean the pictures you hover the mouse over and they expand...I FUCKING HATE THAT!
