On My Quest To Shrink Those Images...

...I introduce the EXTERNAL image cache/resizer.

Now whenever someone posts an image outside of these forums, the new cacher will keep a thumbnail copy on these servers. So page loading for you 56k'ers will be much faster.

As always if you notice any problems, please post them here.

Here's a test:

good idea! and again good test!!

THANK YOU!!!!!
god i hate my 56k!

Ahh...I love it razie.. 🙂

ah, the holy grail seems closer by now 😉

😊 its great..... except for sigs 😬

Yeah, I think I'm just going to force remove external images...

In sigs only I would hope.

I don't mind the cached images from just regular images in posts, but I suggest removing external sigs.

BTW, thank you Raz.

Even though my computer connects at 280k on these forums and other sites my computer goes slow.

And just from you having the images resized my browsing on the forums speeds up dramatically.

My DSL slower than 56k, thsi should help with loading.

DSL slower than 56? Man that must suck.

I have cable so it really didn't bother me at all but I like them this way too ✅
And raz might you have a crush on angelina 😉 second test of her in a row 😛

aawh..yay!...us 56 k'ers are grateful 🙂

are the cached images back to their original forms without the tags again 😑

yeah, apperently it's back to the old 🙂

Is that good?

the 🙂 was ment to be 😖

Yes...for those people who still have cached signatures...now they are no longer thumbs.

Oh, that's good!

Yeah, I've had to disable it for a while as I think it's interfering with the server operating.

Not sure why, but I thought I'd disable it and see if the problem goes away.

raz: for the image shrinking, what happened to it? it seems like it only works for certain threads/forums. or did it get erased or something by mistake? i'm just worrying because i've been posting large images.
