Amiga OS4 shots from around the world

[Cyberus]

May I be so bold to suggest a compromise?

The idea of having screenshots in the AOrg's gallery is a good one, and enriches the site as a community resource.

But some people like to see the whole image, in 'realistic' quality, so having the option available, such as on a dedicated site, where space is not a premium is also a good idea.

So why not have both?

I personally am on dialup (nothing faster available here in the countryside), so whether or not I want to see large images, they hog my bandwidth to the extent that I won't usually bother. But if I *did* have a faster connection, I might want to see the image in all its glory:-)

:-)
Regards,

In RL, no, but I could plainly see the aggravation you were getting for requesting that a couple of people change their avatars. You were perfectly entitled to ask them to, and perfectly entitled to be pissed off when they were being awkward.

As a user said on another thread, its not even about whether it was a reasonable request or not. If I go round someone's house and they ask me to take my shoes off at the door, I don't stand there arguing about how my shoes are not dirty, I take them off - common courtesy...

If people are being unreasonable, sod 'em!
