Do you hate when people don't resize their pictures?

If it's IE , it does a poor job of it; nowhere near the quality of a decent photo viewer/editor. That's usually the first thing I turn off. Besides, even when IE resizes it, doesn't it still have the full size pic in memory?

Indeed. I love being able to take a 4+ MB gigantic pic and resizing it down to a 90kb 1200x1024 image in a matter of about three clicks.

does it run in batch mode.......currently I use fireworks for batch processing of a few hundred images at a time. It takes way to long. Is there a better way?

it does ... select all the files you want and right-click any one to start it up.

we don't need to see 4000x3200 pictures of your dog/wife/cat.

More than that, searching all over the photo for the subject also sucks.

I'm on 6mb down, but 8 seconds sucks ass when it could be no time at all.

I don't mind the d/l so much as I hate having to scroll left/right/up/down just to see the whole pic.

I'm running 1280x1024 and if the picture is bigger than that, it's just annoying to not see the whole pic at once.

Shrink it so people can SEE the whole pic w/o the hassle of scrolling.

I dont' mind, I hvae 10mbit down and the feature enabled in Firefox (it's on by default... come on, people) which auto-resizes images which don't fit in the window.

Yeah the algorithms used for in-browser resizing (at least with IE and FF) result in horrible aliasing.

Hell yeah.

ok we all love looking at other people's wife but why you wanna look at pics of their dogs and cats? :laugh:

jokes apart, well it's kinda annoying as pages takes an eternity to download for poor people like me who must surf with 128kbps

For real. You ought to try surfing these forums at 26.4k.

So what? It's some guy's cat, not the fscking Mona Lisa. If the pic looks that great, left-click on it to get it full size, middle click and scroll to the good part.

So long as it downloads decently fast wth should I care? And big images are nice for certain pictures 😉
