question about picture viewing

[drizzt]

in the old forums, pictures would be posted in large sizes so I could just scroll down the page and look at all the pictures. Now they appear at thumbnail size which usually forces me to make a hundred tabs to enjoy the series.

I was wondering if there is anyway via options or preferences that I could view the pictures in their full size by default when I look at posts?


thanks

My guess would be no. This is purely me spewing bull but I think it has something to do with load on the server as well as loadtime of the page.
The fact that we can now post 400 pics on a page (absolute max) would mean that you pages would load slow and put a huge starain on the server.
Guess that's just the new forum software for you.

yeah, I haven't seen a VB board using anything else apart from thumbs since very the early versions.
A "next" button on the thumbs would be good

BI said it and it's no BS :D

for some reason I cant see the thumbs when using Firefox 2.01 but I have this problem on other vBulletin forums as well. Does anybody know why?

Works fine with IE =\

On another board I visit, they tend to thumbnail a couple of pics then link the whole series that has been upped to a file host, seems to work well. Might be an idea.

wutang's "eyes" gif works fine, but Raven's "boobies" doesn't... what a damn rip off

While I was recently changing avatars, I deleted my old 1, upped something different (it sucked) so I reloaded my drunken satyr and it worked, so maybe Raven needs to reload his.
I've never counted the number of thumbs @ tehForum but they never all fully load for me until I refresh the page and I do have a good connection.
I haven't upgraded to FF 2 yet Ric but it works fine with FF1.8.20061.20612 with all updates
