When I have posted images, it resized everything more than 590 pixels wide, so I post images that size. I rarely think think there is reason to zoom in. If it does, I use Imgur.

I do not think I ever created a Photobucket account.

I think just yesterday I resized my pictures...

Don't we still have some users on dial up?

I'm still on dialup with win98 when in Wausau because
1. It's here
2. given a choice between $5 and $40 it will likely stay that way indefinitely

If I travel many places I still end up on dial up as strange as that seems

Oddly with a proper browser it's not terrible for email and forums.

I'm prolly going back to dial-up. Cost, and a fresh new DHCP address each time you dial in and no persistent threat.

That... and I'm addicted to Youtube videos.

I resize mine to reasonable size. I used Photobucket because it was convenient, after my ISP stopped hosting pictures. So twice in the same year, my build threads got screwed over by my image hosts. Anyway, since I was using it to post pics in threads, I was resizing them to make them viewer friendly. And, at the same time, I've only used 1% of my photobucket data limit, even though I have hundreds of pics on there.

If the other guys were half as convenient for uploading and snagging image URLs, I might use them. As it sits, I'm not willing to try again. (I tried TinyPic, and it gave me nothing but errors when I uploaded after the first couple of days)

Could we start something like reddit's gold feature? There have been times that users have done great and helpful things. I do not know what advanced features paying members receive, but you guys have been great, and have helped me many times. I always plan on donating, just as soon as I stop being a miser, but when someone greatly helps me, I always want a better way to show my appreciation than a couple of words.
I do not know how many members would use it, but I know I would!

Just a reminder to everyone that this exists (Stubby's post was the last one on the page and might have been missed). Here's a link to the Chrome version for the extra lazy: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...alioapbifiaedg

Edit: Looks like my post will also be the last one on the page for those using the forum default of 10 posts/page.
