I specifically mentioned gifs cause havoc on slow connections so a sarcastic thank you to the people linking gifs and ****ing up my connection. It took me about 10 minutes just to load enough to make this post.
I'm on 259kbps down and 159 up atm. And that's fairly good for my connection.
I'd assume you guys have 100% control over the site, unless you got some silly limited managed hosting which for a site this large would seem kinda dumb to me. And admin, well, having technical control over the site is where the name administrator (admin) comes from.
I guess what I'm saying is couldn't you just change the code to the new limit? I'm by no means an expert but I do
know that it's in there. I think last I checked there was no height limit but auto-resizing of the width (which still loads it as if rendering the full size image).
Should be where you can just plug in the values you want.
Does ignoring someone actually block their post from loading though?
EDIT:
Also when trying to find the line again, I inspected element on
@Skwim 's signature as it has a picture and holy crap his signature is like 1700 pixels wide but my window just downscales it lol (I was split screened). I couldn't fine the lines again though that has the limits, I haven't managed a site in so long I've forgotten stuff lol
